Winter Quiet Escape

[Intro] Cold breath in the morning, window glows with frost Footsteps in powder silence, I’m counting what it costs [Verse 1] Away from the gray of the city, where the river bends and sighs The mountains wear their quiet like a truth beneath the skies I slow the hurried heart, let the air write on my lungs Snow sketches new beginnings where the old routine’s undone [Chorus] Breath by breath I find the calm I need In pine-swept silence, I let worries bleed Under crystal skies, I feel my shadow fade Winter’s stillness wraps me in a softer shade [Verse 2] Candlelight on a cabin wall, a kettle sings its tune Footprints trail the hourglass of a hollow afternoon I sip the moment, crystal clear, like frost on glass The mountain watches kindly from the frozen, sleeping grass [Chorus] Breath by breath I find the calm I need In pine-swept silence, I let worries bleed Under crystal skies, I feel my shadow fade Winter’s stillness wraps me in a softer shade [Bridge] If the world rushes back, I’ll carry this quiet dawn Like a beacon through the noise, a steady, quiet song [Chorus] Breath by breath I find the calm I need In pine-swept silence, I let worries bleed Under crystal skies, I feel my shadow fade Winter’s stillness wraps me in a softer shade [Outro] The day ends hushed and bright, the night invites me home I tuck the hush inside my chest, where quiet stays and grows
