Intro
D Dmaj7 D7sus G Em A7 D
[Verso 1]
D Dmaj7 D7sus G
As we are born into the silence, a single thread runs through,
G Em A7 D
Woven through the laughter, the losses, and the fight
D Dmaj7 D7sus G
Chasing shadows in the daylight, building castles out of sand,
G Em A7 D
Forgetting that we hold, the pattern in our hands
D Dmaj7 D7sus G
We break, we bend, we question, why the pain must cut so deep,
G Em A7 D
Yet every scar becomes a doorway, where the light begins to seep
[Refrão]
G Em A7
Oh, the thread that runs through,
G Em A7 D
Invisible but unbreakable, it pulls us home again
G Em A7
From the highest joy to the lowest fall,
G Em A7 D
It binds the broken pieces, it defines us all
D Dmaj7 D7sus G
We are not the mistakes we made, nor the storms weve walked alone
G Em A7 D
We are but the tapestry, and were never on our own
[Verso 2]
D Dmaj7 D7sus G
Time is just a teacher, dressed in minutes, days, and years,
G Em A7 D
Showing us that love is stronger, than our deepest fears
D Dmaj7 D7sus G
We bury seeds in darkness, thinking nothing good can grow,
G Em A7 D
But resurrection whispers, in the soil down below
D Dmaj7 D7sus G
The ones weve lost still echo, in the quiet of our minds,
G Em A7 D
A gentle reminder, that true love never dies
[Ponte]
D Dmaj7 D7sus G
When the mirror lies, and the world feels cold and wide,
G Em A7 D
Look closertheres a purpose, written on the other side
D Dmaj7 D7sus G
Every tear Ive cried, was watering the ground,
G Em A7 D
For something beautiful, thats rising all around
D Dmaj7 D7sus G
We are not the mistakes we made, nor the storms weve faced alone
G Em A7 D
We are but the tapestry, and were never on our own
[Refrão]
G Em A7
Oh, the thread that runs through,
G Em A7 D
Carrying forgiveness, on the winds it rides
G Em A7
From the first breath, to the final call,
G Em A7 D
It weaves our stories, great and small
G Em A7
We are not forgotten, we are not in vain
G Em A7 D
We are the masterpieces, still forming on our own
D Dmaj7 D7sus G
We are not the mistakes we made, nor the storms weve faced alone
G Em A7 D
We are but the tapestry, and were never on our own
Outro
