Two of Swords

V6

[Verse 1] You sit where the river splits in two, Blindfold tied, but the choice sees you. Two cold blades cross your quiet chest, A salt wind asks what you know best. The tide keeps time against the stone, No path is safe because it’s known. [Chorus] Two of swords, hold the line, Still water hides the turning tide. Set one fear down, let one truth through, The way appears when you choose. [Verse 2] Moon on the water, silver and spare, A gull cuts loose through the evening air. You’ve weighed each promise, counted each cost, But every locked door keeps something lost. The answer won’t arrive dressed in a sign; It’s the hand that moves when the moment is mine. [Chorus] Two of swords, hold the line, Still water hides the turning tide. Set one fear down, let one truth through, The way appears when you choose. [Instrumental Break: guitar solo trading with dubby keyboard phrases] [Bridge] Take off the blindfold, look at the shore, The world won’t end at an open door. Let the waves carry what you can’t keep; A clear heart wakes from a guarded sleep. [Final Chorus] Two of swords, hold the line, Still water gives up the turning tide. Set one fear down, let one truth through, The way appears when you choose. [Outro] One blade lowers, the sea draws back, Your own two feet find the track.
