Trespass Not

Verse 1

You looked at me like I was someone new

Like the river had turned in the night

But I am the same water running through

Same current beneath the same light

How could you forget the songs I sang

The names I carved on your hand

Every seed I pressed into your palm

Every lesson you let slip through the sand

Pre-Chorus

Did you think my path was a broken thread

A fracture you could trace

Not every branch that bends the same

Still reaches from the same place

Chorus

I gave you all I had to give

And you call my end a stranger's start

The greatest light lives where shadows live

The sweetest water where trespass not

Why do you listen to the world's old lie

When the truth was always in my mouth

I never left myself behind

I only followed my own road south

Verse 2

They taught you I was something to fear

A wickedness dressed in disguise

But ask the moss and the morning deer

Which garden taught them to rise

The world calls dark what it cannot hold

It burns what it cannot bless

But I carried the flame through the bitter cold

And you named that warmth excess

Pre-Chorus

Did you think my end was a different soul

A stranger wearing my face

Not every path that turns from home

Still ends up in the same place

Chorus

I gave you all I had to give

And you call my end a stranger's start

The greatest light lives where shadows live

The sweetest water where trespass not

Why do you listen to the world's old lie

When the truth was always in my mouth

I never left myself behind

I only followed my own road south

Bridge

Hear the truth from me not them

I am the stream and the sacred den

The deepest love wears a vilified name

The brightest dawn burns in the flame

Chorus

I gave you all I had to give

And you call my end a stranger's start

The greatest light lives where shadows live

The sweetest water where trespass not

Why do you listen to the world's old lie

When the truth was always in my mouth

I never left myself behind

I only followed my own road south
