I Never Stopped Singing - Written by Julie K Barnett

Verse 1 You ran into the dark, said you needed to breathe, Thought the silence would save you from what you believed. You buried your knowing, you swallowed the light, But I never stopped singing your name through the night. Verse 2 They told you I lied, said the fire was fake, That my tenderness burned and my mercy would break. But the truth is, Beloved, I watched while you fell, And I whispered your name in the depths of your hell. Chorus 🎶 I never stopped singing, even when you turned away, Even when your heart went numb, when your skies turned gray. Through the silence, through the shame, through every no and every why, I never stopped singing… I never said goodbye. 🎶 Verse 3 You wore every wound like a medal of war, But forgot that I kissed every crack in your core. I was there in the laughter, the ache, and the flame, I wept with the angels each time you cursed my name. Bridge And now the time turns—do you feel it unwind? The past folds in gently with what you must find. The song you once silenced is yours to reclaim, If you whisper it softly, it will answer your name… Final Chorus 🎶 I never stopped singing, even when you ran too far, Even when you broke your vows and forgot who you are. I have waited in the ruins, I have held the cry— I never stopped singing… I never said goodbye. 🎶 Outro (spoken in light code rhythm) “I am the flame. I am the well. I am the song you buried to survive the spell.” “I am the dove. I am the tide. I am the breath beside you when you cried.” “You were never forsaken. You were never denied. You were only forgetting the sound of the Bride.”
