Verse 1
[Gm]
The clock ticks,
[Eb]
Assuming that time waits for one.
[Bb]
The heart keeps its own rhythm,
[F]
Unburdened by what we've become.
[Gm]
Blue veils beneath a darkening sky,
[Eb]
A borrowed dusk behind your eyes.
[Bb]
Pain wore a sacred mask too long,
[F]
Until silence recognised the disguise.
[Gm]
You gathered storms into your hands,
[Eb]
Calling thunder by my name.
[Bb]
But lightning never chooses sides;
[F]
It only reveals the shape of the flame.
Chorus
[Gm] [Eb]
Repeatable defence... A circle written into stone.
[Bb]
Until the witness learns to breathe
[F]
And leaves the battlefield alone.
[Gm]
Your hate is not mine.
[Eb]
Your fear is not mine.
[Bb]
I carry neither into dawn.
[F]
Love remembers what I am.
Verse 2
[Gm]
A field of white surrounds the flame,
[Gm]
Silver mirrors scattered wide.
[Eb]
Not to wound or to condemn,
[Eb]
Only to reveal what cannot hide.
[Bb]
Nothing trapped. Nothing thrown.
[F]
No vengeance held within the light.
[Gm]
Every arrow finds its maker. Every echo seeks its source.
[Eb]
I answer only with stillness. The current knows its course.
[Bb]
The compass spins through borrowed voices,
[Bb]
Omens dressed in threads of smoke.
[F]
Every answer begged for meaning Until the silent witness woke.
[Gm]
The raven crossed the morning sky,
[Eb]
Not a warning — Just a wing.
[Bb]
The river never asked for names.
[F]
It simply carried everything.
Bridge
[Gm]
I stopped negotiating with echoes.
[Gm]
Stopped naming every shadow that crossed the wall.
[Eb]
Not every voice was asking to be believed.
[Eb] [Bb]
Some were only searching for somewhere to land.
[Bb]
So I became still. A field of white.
[F]
Silver scattered through silence.
[F] [Gm]
Nothing returned except recognition.
[Gm] [Eb]
Nothing carried except love. What leaves me...
[Bb]
Finds itself. What belongs to me...
[F]
Remains.
[Final Chorus]
[Gm]
Repeatable defence...
[Gm]
No longer written in my blood.
[Eb]
The clock still turns. The heart still sings.
[Bb] [F]
The sky asks nothing of my love.
[Gm]
Flecks of silver in the white,
[Gm]
Not to punish— But reveal.
[Eb]
Every soul receives its own reflection,
[Bb]
Held inside a gentler field.
[F]
Your hate is not mine.
[Gm]
Your story is not mine.
[Eb]
Your light was always yours.
[Bb]
Coincidence becomes communion.
[F]
The pattern loosens into grace.
[Gm]
No judgement. No reaction.
[Eb] [Bb]
Only love... Returning each heart
[F]
To its own face.
