Torque of Redemption

{clean fingerpicked guitar, single notes ringing in open space} {low rumble of

bass beneath silence} I've been carrying stones down roads that don't end

Buried under the weight of who I've always been

(ohhh) And I can feel the fault lines crack

I can't hold this back (ohhhh)

Break me open, let the light bleed through I was never whole

without something true

Tear it down,

tear it down

I'll rise from what I knew

(yeahhhh) I've been praying to walls that never talked back

Looking for grace in everything I lack (ohhh)

Every scar tells me where I've been

I'm not done — not yet

(ohhhh) Break me open,

let the light bleed through I was never whole without something true

Tear it down,

tear it down

I'll rise from what I knew

(yeahhhh) I've been standing at the edge of myself

Asking if any of this means a thing {guitars drop to a

single clean

riff, bass sustains} (ohhhhh)

Maybe the breaking is the offering

{drums re-enter, distortion rising,

bass

grinding in low register} {guitar feedback swells over 8 bars into the

final drop} (ohhhhh —

yeahhhh) Break me open,

let the light bleed through I was never whole without something true

Tear it down,

tear it down

I'll rise from what I knew (yeahhhh — ohhhhhh) {lead guitar soaring

over outro riff}

{guitars decay into

single clean note} {bass holds one final low tone} (ohhhhh) {silence}
