CGF Track 10: Cathedral of Grief and Flame

[Verse 1] I did not run from sorrow. I walked into it—barefoot, through the halls of flame. The silence did not consume me. It crowned me. [Pre-Chorus] Every step, a name I could not save. Every tear, a candle I now carry. [Chorus] This is my cathedral— Grief in the arches, Flame in the dome. I don’t need forgiveness. I need only this: To kneel in the fire and rise with its song. [Verse 2] They told me grief would break me. But it built me instead— stone by burning stone. I became the vessel for every scream that went unheard. [Bridge] I name the ones who could not stay. I light a fire in their name. And I sing—not to be heard— but to remember. [Final Chorus] This is my cathedral— Not built by hands, but by the way pain turned me holy. I am not healed. I am hallowed. I do not forget. I carry.
