[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] I grew beneath a steel gray wall With no one here to watch me crawl Just concrete skies and engine sounds A patch of green among the rounds [Verse 2] The morning hum begins to rise The people roam with tired eyes Nobody stops or turns their head They rush, alive, yet half in dread [Pre-Chorus] I wonder what they chase each day Then disappear as night takes way [Chorus] And I remain, I breathe, I sway The silent witness tucked away I bloom alone, I dream, I wait Forsaken in this hidden place [Verse 3] The weekends fall like empty sighs I only hear the silent cries There's resonance from glass to air Yet no one comes, and no one cares [Pre-Chorus] And still, I seek the warmth of sun I stretch and grow, though seen by none [Chorus] And I remain, I breathe, I sway The silent witness tucked away I bloom alone, I dream, I wait Forsaken in this hidden place [Bridge] So what is life if not unseen? If roots can feel, and leaves can dream? Is meaning found on searching wide, Or letting time to be your guide? [Solo bittersweet tone] [Outro] So let me grow in silence deep Beyond the haste, where shadows sleep For even here, in darkness steep A quiet pulse my sprout will keep [Fading instrumental ending] [End]
