Silence into a Second Sun
I took the late shift, took the miles, took the blame Built a better engine out of everything you named Now the old crowd gathers when the hard lights hit But I don’t owe a single breath to any of it [Pre-Chorus] I know what I lost I know what I chose I carried that weight till it sharpened my resolve [Chorus] I’m still here when the walls come down Heart on fire, feet on the ground You shut me out, I found my way through Now every mile says I answered to truth I’m still here, I’m still standing tall No borrowed crown, no need for applause You made me face what I had to become I turned that silence into a second sun [Verse 2] Cold coffee, cracked screen, bus rolling before dawn Two jobs, one coat, kept the stubborn hope on Had a list in my pocket with the names I outgrew At the top was the person who thought I was through I don’t need revenge; I need room to breathe A clean line forward and a life I believe If you see me now, don’t pretend you knew I built this from the hours no one saw me get through [Pre-Chorus] I know what I lost I know what I chose I carried that weight till it sharpened my resolve [Chorus] I’m still here when the walls come down Heart on fire, feet on the ground You shut me out, I found my way through Now every mile says I answered to truth I’m still here, I’m still standing tall No borrowed crown, no need for applause You made me face what I had to become I turned that silence into a second sun [Bridge] If the old doubt calls, let it ring I don’t owe the past a thing Every scar has got a name Every mile has changed the frame [Final Chorus] I’m still here when the walls come down Heart on fire, feet on the ground You shut me out, I found my way through Now every mile says I answered to truth I’m still here, I’m still standing tall No borrowed crown, no need for applause You made me face what I had to become I turned that silence into a second sun [Outro] You closed the door I kept moving
