[Intro]
Softly, I reset the clock and breathe in a steady line
The kettle hums a prophecy of the day aligned
[Verse 1]
In the ordinary light I find a stubborn peace
A harbor built of routine, where the fevered thunderized ceases
I fold the morning into minutes, neat and small
This quiet pledge of safety keeps me from the fall
[Pre-Chorus]
If the world is raging shadows, I wear a steady grin
One small ritual after another, I gather strength from within
[Chorus]
I choose the simple shelter here, where calm becomes a vow
In the hum of daily rituals, I steady the how and now
No grand rebellion, just a soft, persistent claim
That mundane acts protect the heart from burning flame
[Verse 2]
Clothes laid in order, coffee steam like whispered prayers
I count the breaths between the sirens and the stares
The calendar pages turn, but I remain the same
A lighthouse made of routines in a weathered frame
[Pre-Chorus]
If the noise outside grows louder, I tilt my quiet gaze
And stitch a fortress from the patterns of my days
[Chorus]
I choose the simple shelter here, where calm becomes a vow
In the hum of daily rituals, I steady the how and now
No grand rebellion, just a soft, persistent claim
That mundane acts protect the heart from burning flame
[Bridge]
Sometimes the world shouts chaos, I answer with a sigh
A sanctuary built of inboxes closed and curtains drawn tight
[Chorus]
I choose the simple shelter here, where calm becomes a vow
In the hum of daily rituals, I steady the how and now
No grand rebellion, just a soft, persistent claim
That mundane acts protect the heart from burning flame
[Outro]
So I breathe, and I stay, in this quiet, steady space
A rebel where the quiet keeps me safe, a soft embrace
