Guard the Spark

Verse 1

Staring at the glass

Twelve years back I heard the laugh

Cold

Calculated

He looked at my hands and saw a losing streak

Claimed I would fold by the frost of December

Just a girl in a suit

Little did he know

I keep receipts

Chorus

Let them

Let them talk their hollow talk

Let them

Watch me while I walk this walk

My dream

My life

My dream

My life

I am the only one who owns the light

Post-Chorus

Let them

Let them

Let them

Yeah let them

Verse 2

New wall

Same bricks

Quiet months and focused shifts

Hungry

I gave my time to the climb

Isolation is a heavy heavy cloak to wear

Doubt is a neighbor knocking on the floorboards

Bitter

Bold

I don't open up the latch

I just keep the fire for the match

Chorus

Let them

Let them talk their hollow talk

Let them

Watch me while I walk this walk

My dream

My life

My dream

My life

I am the only one who owns the light

Post-Chorus

Let them

Let them

Let them

Yeah let them

Bridge

What if I fall

What if I fail

What if I lose the wind in the sail

I showed up

I stood up

I spoke up

That is the win

Losing by default is the only real sin

You can't see what I see

You don't breathe how I breathe

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Let them

Let them talk their hollow talk

Let them

Watch me while I walk this walk

My dream

My life

My dream

My life

I am the only one who owns the light

Outro

Protect the spark

Even in the lonely dark

I tried

I tried

At least I tried

I didn't walk away

I stayed

I stayed

Let them

Let them

Let them

Let them
