Lyrics

The library is quiet in the rain
I hide among the wooden shelves again
A heavy coat, a heavy mind to bear
I pull a faded cover from the chair
The binding cracks the paper smells of pine
I didn't come to read, just buying time
And right at chapter five, where heroes fall
Where shadows start to climb the painted wall
A brittle flower flutters to my shoe
And in the margin ink of faded blue
It said I wanted to give up right here
I felt the same heavy, drowning fear
But someone left a lantern in the dark
A tiny handwritten, quiet spark
I know the night is long, the winter cold
But keep reading on, let the story unfold
I trace the loops of letters from the past
A stranger's hand that built a bridge to last
Fifty years have turned the pages brown
But in this quiet room, I set my burden down
The flower was a promise, pressed in time
A silent hand that reaches out for mine
Right at chapter five, where shadows grow
Where every tired soul just wants to let it go
I read the ink, I brush away the dust
And in a stranger's cursive, I find trust
They said I wanted to give up right here
I felt the same heavy, drowning fear
But someone left a lantern in the dark
A tiny handwritten, quiet spark
I know the night is long, the winter cold
But keep reading on, let the story unfold
I close the book
I place the flower back
A secret map across the faded black
I'm not alone
We walked this very road
And someone else survived this heavy load
I'm not gonna give up right here
They felt the same heavy, drowning fear
So I will leave this lantern in the dark
For the next tired soul to find the spark
I know the night is long, the winter cold
But keep reading on
Let the story unfold
Keep reading on
The ink is faded blue
They left it here for you
