05. Under the Fading Sky (live2)

[crowd close, warm club noise] [spoken words announcement] “Alright — let’s pick it up. ‘Under the Fading Sky.’” [intro] [instrumental] [Verse 1] Dust is rising from my footsteps, as the daylight starts to fade. Every mile behind me whispers of the choices that I made. But the shadows keep on moving, walking right beside my name. And the weight of the road ahead burns steady like a flame. [Chorus] I keep walking through the darkness, with the fire in my chest. Every heartbeat like a warning, but I won’t lay down to rest. If the night begins to tremble, I will stand and face the dread. For the path that lies before me is the weight of the road ahead. [Verse 2] I have carried all my failures, like a stone beneath my skin. But the wind begins to gather, calling me to rise again. And the echoes of the distance sing a song I’ve never said. So I follow through the silence with the weight of the road ahead. [instrumental] [Bridge] If the dawn should break behind me, I won’t turn to see it glow. For the fire that keeps me moving is the only truth I know. [Final Chorus] I keep walking through the darkness, with the fire in my chest. Every heartbeat like a warning, but I won’t lay down to rest. If the night begins to tremble, I will rise instead of dread. For the path that keeps me living is the weight of the road ahead. [end]
