My Sanctuary

Verse 1

Four walls made of cardboard dreams

A weathered block beneath the sand

Objects without souls surround me

And those that still hold memories in their hands

Some stay hidden in the shadows

Some remain within my sight

Pieces of forgotten stories

Waiting quietly through the night

Pre-Chorus

This is where the silence knows my name

This is where I learned to stay

Chorus

This is my sanctuary

My refuge from the storm

A place where every scar and memory

Can finally belong

The sunlight wakes me gently

The wind still knows my face

And every breath of earth around me

Reminds me of my place

Verse 2

People passing through my lifetime

Some I lost and some remain

Those I hardly ever noticed

Those whose absence leaves a pain

Every path that crossed my journey

Every hand I couldn't hold

Lives somewhere within these walls now

Like stories waiting to be told

Pre-Chorus

This is where the silence knows my name

This is where I learned to stay

Chorus

This is my sanctuary

My refuge from the storm

A place where every scar and memory

Can finally belong

The sunlight wakes me gently

The wind still knows my face

And every breath of earth around me

Reminds me of my place

Bridge

The river calls me to its rhythm

The branches sway above my head

The world is speaking without language

Through living things and paths I've tread

No kingdom built of stone surrounds me

No golden gates I need to find

The source of life has always waited

Within the wild and in my mind

Final Chorus

This is my sanctuary

The heart of who I am

The sunlight, wind and flowing water

Together make me whole again

And when the world becomes too heavy

When every road feels far away

I find myself within this stillness

And hear my spirit softly say

Outro

This is my sanctuary...

The living source of my existence...
