Compass in the Dark

Cláudio Fontenelle

Spent a decade wrestling the signal
Painting over the static in the hall
I treated the fever like a traitor
Building an anchor to keep from the fall

But the water just rises when you hold your breath
The mad begins when we put the sword back in the sheath
When we listen to the ghost beneath, it's not a war
It's just a compass spinning in the dark

The shadow isn't here to scare the light
It's just mapping out the edges of the room
I stopped digging holes to bury the truth
Now I'm just watching the garden find its bloom

It's hard to hear the song through the noise of the fight
The mad begins when we put the sword back in the sheath
When we listen to the ghost beneath, it's not a war
It's just a compass spinning in the dark

What if the break was just a chance to see
Through the cracks where the light was meant to be?
No more armor, no more heavy stones
The mad begins when we put the sword back in the sheath

When we listen to the ghost beneath, it's not a war
It's just a compass spinning in the dark
Oh, oh, oh
Thanks Claudio Fontenelle!

Put the sword away
Just listen
Unravel
