vox clamantis in deserto

Grace – Demo

Verse 1:
There I was, my head hung low, in a motel called San Quinn
Guilt like chains hold me tight, no hope to pull me in
Heard a whisper on the wind, soft and sweet like summer rain
“Come to me, I’ll set you free, break what binds your pain.”

Chorus:
Like fire in a moonless sky, a star to guide my way
Like fire pulsing in my vein, it’s you, oh Grace, I crave

Verse 2:
My only friends lived on the road where red neon lights burn
Empty laughter, hollowed hearts, lessons I was born to learn
Soft green eyes pierced my empty gaze, showed me a different road
Led my hand to a higher ground, where Grace could ease my load

Chorus:
Like fire in a moonless sky, a star to guide my way
Like fire pulsing in my vein, it’s you, Oh Grace, I crave

Bridge:
No more shadows, no more chains, no more bottle in my hand
Only a needle and its pain, your letters written in the sand

Chorus:
Like fire in a moonless sky, a star to guide my way
Like fire pulsing in my vein, it’s you, Oh Grace, I crave

Verse 3:
Beneath the weight of winter’s breath, north grows a bracken frond
Memories drift life falling leaves, whispers of notes beyond
Saw her dance with the wind, drifting through dreams and fears
Her every tear a cleansing rain, washing away the years
