Bright Street, Small Beacon

[Intro] Soft streetlight spills like snow over the road A small silhouette fights the glare of chrome [Verse 1] Tiny feet on a pavement circus of neon Snowbound in city glare, a quiet, brittle moment Eyes wide for shelter, heart a fragile drum The world rushes past, leaving frost on the drum [Chorus] In the bright street, a whisper of shade and sigh Danger hums under sirens in the evening sky Hold your breath, little heart, let the moment slow Let courage bloom where the cold winds blow [Verse 2] A shadowed door yawns like a harbor of gray Security checks the rain on the glass and away The penguin gathers courage from a lull in the crowd Breath paints white mist, soft as a prayer aloud [Pre-Chorus] Footsteps echo, then drift to a distant lane Hope threads a tether through the bustling rain [Chorus] In the bright street, a whisper of shade and sigh Danger hums under sirens in the evening sky Hold your breath, little heart, let the moment slow Let courage bloom where the cold winds blow [Bridge] If the city breaks open, will you still stay true Tiny beacon of warmth in a storm-worn view [Chorus] In the bright street, a whisper of shade and sigh Danger hums under sirens in the evening sky Hold your breath, little heart, let the moment slow Let courage bloom where the cold winds blow [Outro] The glow remains, a soft imprint on the snow Aftermath whispers of seeds the hopeful scars sew
