Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Streetlights flicker through the evening haze
Footsteps echo through the lost and dazed
My shadow’s longer than it used to be
I’ve been holding on too quietly

Cold wind whispers like an old regret
Every mile’s a weight I haven’t dropped yet
Eyes on the road, heart in my throat
Carving hope from the things I wrote

(Pre-Chorus)
Still I chase that distant light
Through the fog, through the fight

(Chorus)
There’s a rainbow in the mist—like a vow that never fades
A shimmer through the gray that still persuades
But my arms weren’t made to hold the sky this long
I’m breaking—but I press on

(Verse 2)
Built my strength on borrowed time
Stacked my dreams like crooked lines
Tried to hold the world with shaking hands
But even heroes can’t always stand

There’s fire left, but not like before
I still reach, though I don’t know what for
The weight is silent, the road is wide
I’ve lost some parts I used to hide

(Pre-Chorus)
Still I chase that distant light
Even when I lose the night

(Chorus)
There’s a rainbow in the mist—like a hope that won’t let go
A promise I can’t name, but still I know
I was never meant to bear it all alone
I’m fading—but I’m not gone

(Bridge)
If I fall, will the stars still glow?
If I break, will anyone know?
Still I walk through the thunder’s cry
Chasing colors painted in the sky

(Final Chorus)
There’s a rainbow in the mist—like a truth just out of reach
A lesson that the silence tried to teach
I’ve been holding up this world with a soul that’s worn and torn
Still standing—though I'm worn

(Outro)
Still standing…
Even when the light feels gone
