Quiet Dawn

[Intro] Soft kettle hiss, a quiet revolution begins Morning light threads through a routine’s thin skin [Verse 1] Wash of pale hands, a cup in pale white glare Breath counted in steps, like a vow whispered there The clock coughs, answers drift in steam and steam In the sink of the day, she redraws the dream [Pre-Chorus] Small defiance in the corner of the room A glint of purpose blooms where the quiet tunes [Chorus] I move through the morning with a hidden flame Silence keeps the records, I temper the game If the world shouts loud, I listen for the light In ordinary hours, I claim my right [Verse 2] Spoon clinks softly, errands bend to a softer pace She plants a note of kindness, an unspoken grace Shoes tied tight, like promises made to survive In the ordinary, she keeps a spark alive [Pre-Chorus] Every breath a bookmark in the busy day Every small choice a brick in the quiet way [Chorus] I move through the morning with a hidden flame Silence keeps the records, I temper the game If the world shouts loud, I listen for the light In ordinary hours, I claim my right [Bridge] Let the roars of rush recede to dust and foam In the stillness, I find a place I call home [Chorus] I move through the morning with a hidden flame Silence keeps the records, I temper the game If the world shouts loud, I listen for the light In ordinary hours, I claim my right [Outro] Dawn folds the capes of noise into the dark She stands, a quiet anthem sparking a spark
