[Intro]
Silent questions rise like dawn in rain
[Verse 1]
The secret is never known, I walk through the gray
My soul is the core of belief, a fragile flame I weigh
The truth hides inside the heart, where shadows softly play
My mind tries to hold wisdom, but it slips away
[Chorus]
Under the clouds I’m walking, where borders fade to code
In a chessboard of faces, I’m barely in control
Tears count for nothing, in a world that won’t console
Can hope keep beating when every rule feels cold
[Verse 2]
Violence and cruelty carve the streets and lies we tell
Hatred and suspicion rule the rooms where families dwell
Days are counting without ending, a clock that knows no friend
Prophecies spoken, but how do they truly end
[Chorus]
Under the clouds I’m walking, where borders fade to code
In a chessboard of faces, I’m barely in control
Tears count for nothing, in a world that won’t console
Can hope keep beating when every rule feels cold
[Bridge]
Who rules this Earth with visions borrowed from another’s eyes
Can I trust the love that says it stays, or hides its own disguise
If I’m split by questions, will the halves ever meet and tell
That there’s a common answer waiting just beyond the shell
[Verse 3]
My family is there for me, I feel a lineage pull
Can I say they love me back, is certainty so cruel
Who lives in me, a voice that speaks what I can’t locate
My spirit asks for cooperation between the parts that orbit fate
[Chorus]
Under the clouds I’m walking, where borders fade to code
In a chessboard of faces, I’m barely in control
Tears count for nothing, in a world that won’t console
Can hope keep beating when every rule feels cold
[Outro]
There’s more behind the self I am, a truth I glimpse through rain
A silent oath that someday I’ll see beyond the chain
