The Weight of the Shore

+ Show full styles

[Intro: Atmospheric, distorted bass, minimal drums]
[Verse 1]
To those who after the long strain think they’ve finally won the shore.
To those who drop the oar thinking the port is where you rest.
To them, I say today: This isn't it.
Don't settle.
I need more. [Chorus: Catchy but dark, rhythmic emphasis]
No gold at the edge, no light in the blue,
The salt on your skin says you're not through.
We lift up our palms in silence towards the sky,
We do it by law, we do it for gold.
But it’s not enough!
It’s never the end!
[Verse 2]
To those who walk the sand and no longer ask if this is glory or just silt.
To those who give in and merge with their own shadow in the March sun’s tilt.
To them I say: the shadow is a prison.
The silt is no finish line.
Keep walking. [Chorus]
No gold at the edge, no light in the blue,
The salt on your skin says you're not through.
We lift up our palms in silence towards the sky,
We do it by law, we do it for gold.
But it’s not enough!
It’s never the end!
[Bridge: Tense guitars, building rhythm]
I speak of that stillness that lies to you,
thinking your sweat bought the right to stand still.
You reach the place having lost your speech,
but silence is a trap, not a harbor.
Don't settle. The void is only the beginning.
[Verse 3: Breakdown, moody, bass-driven]
I am with the one who looks at empty hands and raises them to the sky, not clenching a fist.
Not to accept the gravity of the ground,
but to demand what hasn't arrived yet.
The sky is just a blank page. [Chorus: High energy, powerful vocals]
No gold at the edge, no light in the blue,
The salt on your skin says you're not through.
We lift up our palms in silence towards the sky,
We do it by law, we do it for gold.
But it’s not enough!
It’s never the end!
[Outro: Intense, desperate crescendo]
No comfort in a plan,
No fury in the lie.
Just the man, the hunger, and the bread,
And this trade of outliving the sky.
To those, I say:
I need more...
More...
More...
[Big Finish: Shouted with passion]
Much, much more I want.
[End]
