The Best of Life Is Yet to Be

[Intro] Soft drones drift through frozen air A single voice begins a prayer [Verse 1] I walk alone through falling white Where shadows bleed into the night Old footprints swallowed by the snow On roads I walked so long ago [Verse 2] I paid the price of borrowed flame Carried loss, carried every blame Yet in the cold, a fragile sound Breathes where hope was never found [Pre-Chorus] Lay down your arms, your weary soul The dark won’t claim what it can’t hold [Chorus] What’s torn apart may still be mended When all the battles have been ended Beyond the fear, beyond the scars We’re more than what the past has carved [Interlude] (Instrumental Solo) [Verse 3] If we are shaped by what we choose Then let me choose a truth to lose That pain is all we’re meant to be That fate has closed its doors on me [Pre-Chorus 2] I feel the dawn beneath the snow A silent strength begins to grow [Final Chorus] Rest your soul, the storm is gone The endless night gives way to dawn Hold on, my friend, and you will see The best of life is yet to be [Outro] A single note, a fading hum At last… the long journey’s done
