[Verse 1] You set the blade beside the bed Three quiet swords above your head The fourth one waits beneath your hand While morning gathers on the land [Pre-Chorus] No need to solve the whole wide sky Just let the hurried hours pass you by [Chorus] Lay it down, let the room turn still Let your tired heart mend at its own will When the door swings wide, you’ll know what’s true Rest is a road that leads back to you [Verse 2] A folded cloth, a candle’s end The stone is cool against your skin You’ve held the line through wind and rain Now set the weight outside the frame [Pre-Chorus] No answer blooms beneath a strain Some seeds need dark before the rain [Chorus] Lay it down, let the room turn still Let your tired heart mend at its own will When the door swings wide, you’ll know what’s true Rest is a road that leads back to you [Instrumental: guitar solo trading with dubby keyboard phrases] [Bridge] The pause is not a closing gate It keeps a little room for fate Breathe in the hush, breathe out the fight The mind grows clear by candlelight [Final Chorus] Lay it down, let the room turn still Let your tired heart mend at its own will When the door swings wide, you’ll know what’s true Rest is a road that leads back to you Rest is a road that leads back to you [Outro] Set down the sword Stay here awhile
