Hard contemporary folk and acoustic rock
Lyrics
You tell me Im nothing,
You tell me Im small
You climb on my shoulders
And whisper Ill fall.
But Ive walked too many mornings
To believe the midnight tune
And I see the sun is rising
Through the gloom.
So hush now, bitter echo,
Still your voice, make no sound
Your chains fall like dry branches,
To the ground
I will follow kinder footsteps,
Leading me to peace of mind
And I wont hear your echoes
The quiet, will be mine.
You sit in my silence,
You speak in my sleep,
You tell me my promises
Are not mine to keep.
But Ive tasted the morning,
And Ive touched the sky,
And I wont let your whispers
Rule my life.
So hush now, bitter echo,
Still your voice, make no sound
Your chains fall like dry branches,
To the ground
I will follow kinder footsteps,
Leading me to peace of mind
And I wont hear your echoes
The quiet will be mine.
Bridge
Theres a place in the silence,
Where the harsh voices cease,
Where the earth forgives the sinner,
And the sinner finds release
and peace.
Final Chorus
So hush now, bitter echo,
You cant haunt this heart of mine.
Ive chosen brighter pathways,
Left your darkness behind.
I will follow kinder footsteps,
Leading me to peace of mind
And I wont hear your echoes
The quiet will be mine.
