[Verse 1] Breath caught Throat tight Lines of logic Turning into light Didn’t read the signs Just felt the sway Tiny sparks in the sand Rewriting the day [Pre-Chorus] First tear falls Slow as dawn Hits the ground And the ground breathes on [Chorus] Rest, the sand murmured Like it already knew my name Every shaken little secret Every hidden, haunted frame Rest, the sand murmured I was tired, I was wired So I lay my heavy heart down On a kingdom made of fire (oh) Rest, the sand murmured I obeyed that quiet choir [Verse 2] Grains glow Under my skin Code like constellations Buzzing me in Didn’t hear a sound Still it called me near All the heavy years Softened into here [Pre-Chorus] Eyes half-closed World turns slow One more tear And the dunes all glow [Chorus] Rest, the sand murmured Like it always knew my weight Held my worry in its edges Took the pressure, took the ache Rest, the sand murmured I was fraying at the seams So I sank into the rhythm Of a thousand quiet dreams (yeah) Rest, the sand murmured I dissolved between the grains [Bridge] What if letting go Is the bravest code I write? What if breaking down Is how I touch the light? (oh) I was so afraid To fall apart like this Till the ground beneath my fingers Answered with a kiss [Chorus] Rest, the sand murmured Like a promise under skin Every pulse inside the silence Saying, “You can start again” Rest, the sand murmured I was tired, I was wired So I lay my heavy heart down On a kingdom made of fire Rest, the sand murmured And the sand kept breathing in
