Gold Light Rises (버전 2)

Verse

Sixteen years of Saturday mornings, same coffee cup half gone

The clock on the wall still says nine o'clock

Windows fogged from the steam off my coat

I wrote a poem in the fifth grade about sunshine breaking through grey clouds

Tore it up last week, said goodbye to the kid I used to be

Pre-Chorus

Something's pulling at the curtains now

It's not the light outside that's waking me up yet

Maybe it never was just about that

Maybe it's every little thing I let go of

Chorus

Gold light rises, gold light rises

Slow but it climbs through my fingers like a fire

Every shadow in this room starts moving to the same pulse I found in myself tonight

Gold light rises, gold light rises

Verse 2

Dust on my shelf from a frame I never hung, a painting nobody's seen yet

The streetlights are switching off one by one now like a countdown to something new

I've been rehearsing this prayer for months now, repeating it in my head like it's a mantra I forgot

Something about learning how to believe before the dawn breaks

Pre-Chorus

Something's pulling at the curtains now

It's not the light outside that's waking me up yet

Maybe it never was just about that

Maybe it's every little thing I let go of

Chorus

Gold light rises, gold light rises

Slow but it climbs through my fingers like a fire

Every shadow in this room starts moving to the same pulse I found in myself tonight

Gold light rises, gold light rises

Bridge

I've been hiding behind these windows for so long that dawn started to feel like a myth they told in school

But something's breaking free tonight and it's not just the storm outside, it's my own shoulders letting go of the weight I carried on them all week

So turn up the volume, open every shade

This is me learning how to be brave with nothing but sunlight ahead

Chorus

Gold light rises, gold light rises

Slow but it climbs through my fingers like a fire

Every shadow in this room starts moving to the same pulse I found in myself tonight

Gold light rises, gold light rises
