based on original music by "raiders of the lost heart"! (SONG011225)

you were the flame/Lyrics:

Intro
He left before the morning
With a question in his hands
Chasing something holy
Past the borders of the maps

Verse 1
He crossed the burning valleys
Where the lonely rivers bend
He climbed the frozen mountains
Just to find where answers end

He spoke to ancient strangers
Under unfamiliar stars
But every truth they gave him
Left another hidden scar

Pre-Chorus
And the wind kept calling louder
Through the silence and the stone
“Will you find the meaning
Or the way back home?”

Chorus
He ran to the edge of the world
Where the oceans touch the sky
With a heart full of thunder
And a soul too tired to lie

He searched through the dark
For a light he couldn’t name
But the end of the world
Whispered softly:
“You were the flame”

Verse 2
He walked through cities sleeping
Under towers made of glass
Saw reflections of a lifetime
In the ruins of the past

He asked the moon for mercy
He asked the sea for signs
But the universe stayed quiet
Like it knew he needed time

Bridge
Then he fell down in the silence
With the stars above his face
And for once he stopped running
From the emptiness of space

Build
And he heard his own heart beating
Like a drum beneath the ground
Not an answer from the heavens
But the first true human sound

Final Chorus
He ran to the edge of the world
Where the oceans touch the sky
With a heart full of thunder
And a soul too tired to lie

He searched through the dark
For a light he couldn’t name
But the end of the world
Whispered softly:
“You were the flame”

Outro
So he turned back toward the sunrise
No longer asking why
For the meaning of living
Was to love before we die
