The Weight of Sight (1) (Lyrics in description)

Описание: The weight of sight - Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I walk through the market with eyes open wide
Seeing the gears and the secrets they hide
I offer a hand to straighten the line
To mend what is broken by design
But they shrink from the light that I carry within
As if seeking the truth was a cardinal sin
My words are a bridge that they fear to cross
They count my wisdom as only their loss

[Chorus]
Oh, it is a heavy gift, a beautiful curse
To see the whole world in a single verse
They judge what they cannot begin to define
While I am the prisoner of my own mind
Too deep for the shallow, too bright for the dark
Just a lonely flame seeking a kindred spark

[Verse 2]
I correct the errors, I show them the way
But silence and shadows are all that they play
They feel the sting of a thought they can’t grasp
While I hold the future in my steady clasp
Misplaced in this era, born out of my time
In any other age, my truth would be a crime
They’d silence the spirit that dares to speak out
And drown out my certainty with their own doubt

[Chorus]
Oh, it is a heavy gift, a beautiful curse
To see the whole world in a single verse
They judge what they cannot begin to define
While I am the prisoner of my own mind
Too deep for the shallow, too bright for the dark
Just a lonely flame seeking a kindred spark

I want to run far where the horizon is clear
But there is no refuge from what people fear
I pick up the slack while they turn and they stare
Breathing a different, more rarefied air
I make no apologies for being this strong
In a world that insists that my nature is wrong

[Outro]
I must understand though they never will try
To see through the veil and the common lie
Unappreciated in this cruel, dark place
The lonely soul of a misplaced race
I need to be free, I need to be me
Beyond the depths of their small, cold sea
