I Choose Peace

Текст песни

[Verse 1] You left the kettle by the sink A chipped blue cup beside the plate I watched the afternoon go quiet And stopped asking it to change [Pre-Chorus] There are words I could keep throwing Like stones against a door But my hands are tired of holding What they were never meant for [Chorus] I choose peace, not because it’s easy I choose peace, because I’m free Let the old weight lose its meaning Let tomorrow come to me If your road runs far from mine now I can bless it as it leaves I choose peace, I choose breathing I choose what I can believe [Verse 2] The garden fence still leans to one side The winter split the wood I could spend another season fixing What was never built that good [Pre-Chorus] So I’ll mend the things that matter A window, heart, and name Not every broken piece belongs Back inside the frame [Chorus] I choose peace, not because it’s easy I choose peace, because I’m free Let the old weight lose its meaning Let tomorrow come to me If your road runs far from mine now I can bless it as it leaves I choose peace, I choose breathing I choose what I can believe [Bridge] No grand door, no perfect ending Just a smaller, kinder flame A room where I can hear my own voice And not mistake it for your blame [Final Chorus] I choose peace, and I’m still learning How to set the burden down There is plenty left worth keeping There is solid ground around If your road runs far from mine now May it carry you with ease I choose peace, I choose breathing I choose peace I choose me [Outro] The kettle cools beside the window Morning finds the cup I don’t need to turn around To know I’m waking up
