[Soft, Reflective Intro – Organ-like Melody] [Verse 1] In the colors of the broken light I saw the saints in sacrifice Their pain, their blood, immortalized In fragile glass, beneath the skies [Chorus] But not for me, no, not this fate I’ve found a way beyond the gate No need for blood, no need for chains I’ve seen the truth, I’ve shed my pain [Verse 2] They worship tears that never dry In windows reaching toward the sky But I have walked a different path No sacrifice, no holy wrath [Reflective Bridge] In stained glass stories, suffering reigns But I refuse to wear those chains The light shines through in shades of red But there are brighter paths ahead [Chorus] But not for me, no, not this fate I’ve found a way beyond the gate No need for blood, no need for chains I’ve seen the truth, I’ve shed my pain [Powerful Instrumental Break – Building Tension] [Verse 3] The saints may weep, the martyrs cry But I will raise my voice on high I’ve found a way, I’ve seen the light It doesn’t live in numbing night [Triumphant Bridge] Not everyone must bear the cross Not every soul is bound to loss There’s freedom in the steps we take A different world, for hearts to wake [Final Chorus] So hear me now, I scream it clear To all who doubt, to all who fear No need for blood, no need for chains I’ve found my truth, I’ve shed my pain [Outro – Triumphant and Uplifting] The stained glass breaks, the light shines through A brighter sky, a different view I’ve seen the way, I’ll stand and fight Not every soul is born to fright [End]
