Gifts of Grace

[Verse 1] We smoked the sunrise over sour espresso, Your thrift-store dress stuck to the backseat window. The cops took our IDs, laughed at your fake name— “Jimi’s ghost,” you grinned, but your hands still shook just the same. [Chorus] We’re velvet haze and cheap red wine, Sippin’ rebellion ‘cross the county line. The highway hums a G♯ groove… We got nothin’ to prove but the weight of the moon. [Verse 2] Your dad’s old vinyl skips on Axis: Bold As Love, We’re tracing the cracks in his porchlight’s pulse. *You say, “Screw the plan, let the static decide,” But your voice fades where the bassline dies… [Bridge] Are we just kids playin’ house with a lighter? Your laugh’s a looped sample, burnin’ brighter, brighter. The cops’ll forget us, the rain’ll rewrite the night— Till then, we’re sparks in the rearview light. [Outro] Velvet haze… (Your lips taste like stolen thyme) Cheap red wine… (We’ll fade out one crime at a time).

[Verse 1] We drift like ash on a slow-burn wind, Your dreads tied with threads where the stars begin. The campfire hums a forgotten hymn, Our shadows twist, half-lost, half-found again. You pass the jar, say, “The cosmos is thin— One hit away from pullin’ the truth out the spin…” [Chorus] Smoke signals in the moonlight, We’re painting the void with a low-fi haze. “The system’s a trap,” but your laugh’s too bright— Smoke signals in the moonlight. [Verse 2] The cops rolled by, but we sank like stones, Mud on our boots, FM static on the radio. You scribble “FREEDOM” on a rusted sign, But the letters bleed like cheap red wine… [Bridge] Do we stay lost or let the highway win? *Your voice, a vinyl crackle: “Where’s the harm in givin’ in?” We’re all just ghosts in a tourist town, Chasing the dawn before the world comes down. [Outro] Smoke signals, smoke signals… The embers write our names in the dirt. Smoke signals, smoke signals… We fade first, but the universe hurts.

[Verse] Til himlene rækker din miskundhed Gud Din trofasthed når dine skyer Din retfærdshånd over bjergene ud Er strakt over dale og byer [Verse 2] Som himlenes favn er din kærlighed Gud Som havets dyb er din nåde Din visdom lyser som solens glød Gennem hjertet hvor du boede [Chorus] Du skænker fred som en hellig vind I mørket er du lysets fyr Med tro ser vi din magt og vid Og ved du altid er nær [Verse 3] I stormens sus du kalder os hjem Fra vildfarelsens veje Din stemme mild vi følger frem Til ro i himmelens speje [Verse 4] Med korsets tegn du baner en vej Fra død til evigt liv Vi kender dig som nævnets hegn Og takker for dit driv [Bridge] Du løfter os op hvor vi intet ser I troens verden stor Din kærlighed i hjertet ler Nu ved vi hvorfor vi tror

[Verse] Whirling in shadows under the moon Spirit"s whisper a soulful tune Feet on fire heart in trance Lost in the dervish"s dance [Verse 2] Eyes closed tight truth inside Winds of wisdom my only guide Mystics chant a secret song In this moment I belong [Chorus] Take me higher spin me round In the silence truth is found Heartbeats merge with ancient might Dervish dances into night [Verse 3] Cloak of stars on shoulders draped Timeless circle in dreams escaped Sands of time beneath my toes Whirlwind where the spirit flows [Bridge] Questions melt like morning dew In this dance I am the few Hands to sky feet to ground Dervish whisper heaven-bound [Chorus] Take me higher spin me round In the silence truth is found Heartbeats merge with ancient might Dervish dances into night
