The silence doesn’t frighten me tonight It carries your name, it speaks your truth You walked without a crown or throne Just trying to make it home You bore the weight you never claimed Hands open, heart exposed You stood when standing mattered most For love, for blood, for those you chose You were never carved in stone But written deep in living skin Every scar became a doorway You kept walking back within You broke more than you meant to break Lost time you couldn’t save Still you showed up when it counted Braver than the brave If this world has closed its eyes on you Know your light is not undone Till time will bring us together once again You watch the ones you loved Stand guard until our roads align Till time will bring us together once again You weren’t strong every single day Sometimes you turned away But strength was choosing not to run When running felt the safest way The years ran through your open hands Like water, dust, and sand Still love was always how you measured Who you were, and where you’d stand You are not your faults or noise Not the battles you outgrew You are every hand you ever held Every truth you carried through If this world has closed its eyes on you Know your light is not undone Till time will bring us together once again From wherever you now stand Keep us safe until our end Till time will bring us together once again If this was your final breath It was honest, it was clean No war left inside your chest No crown, no king, just human being So watch us from the quiet now Where peace has finally won Stay near us till the day arrives When this long night is done If this world has closed its eyes on you We will carry what you gave Till time will bring us together once again Be our shadow, be our flame Guard our hearts until that day Till time will bring us together once again The silence doesn’t frighten me tonight It sounds like peace, it sounds like rest Sleep now, friend, and wait for us We’ll meet you when the time is right
