Lyrics

[Verse 1] Frost draws a white staff across the conservatory glass. I let the room keep time while the old noise fades. I keep my hands steady and listen for the change. [Pre-Chorus] One held note makes the empty room answer. Nothing here is borrowed, nothing has to hide. [Chorus] Frost on the Conservatory, stay with me through the turning. Frost on the Conservatory, say the thing the dark could not erase. Carry the honest part into the morning. We will know the way by how the last word lands. [Verse 2] The hour moves forward, leaving room around the truth. I meet it without hurry, without dressing it in gold. What was only distance becomes a road beneath us. What was only silence finds a voice and finds a home. [Bridge] No borrowed thunder, no convenient ending. Only breath, only ground, only one clear name. [Final Chorus] Frost on the Conservatory, stay with me through the turning. Carry the honest part into the morning. We will know the way by how the last word lands.
