Shifting Sands

The night moves like a river of sand
Every step shifts beneath me, yet I keep walking
This is a journey through chaos, loss, and the freedom that rises from surrender
This is shifting sands

The compass spins, a needle lost and wild
Every step I take sinks a little deeper
Left the old path, left my former self behind
The map is gone and the silence is a guide

Walking on ground that never feels the same
Chasing mirages, chasing echoes of my name
The past is ours
Yet I carry on
Is this the end where my soul has grown

The sand keeps shifting
The ground is moving fast
Every ghost a memory calls from the past
The world keeps turning
Foundations fight away
Yet freedom moves
In the price I have to pay

Horizons blur
No fixed points to guide me
I thought I had answers
But the path is free

In chaos I find both fear and quiet grace
A strange new place emerges
A sacred spin
The night tried to hold me
I tried to bind
But here I stand
Fearless, unconfined

Mirages fall away
Revealing what's true
The shifting sand
The lands become a sky of blue

The sand keeps shifting
The ground is moving fast
Every ghost a memory calls from the past
The world keeps turning
Foundations fade away
Yet freedom blooms
In the price I have to pay

The horizon isn't fixed
It's the strength we discover inside
Through storms, silence, and fire
We learn who we are

The sand keeps shifting
The night fades away
From the chaos I rise come what may
Every shadow behind me
Every tear I cried
Above the hurt I finally fly

And as the wind settles I realize
The horizon I sought was always within me
