I want to present to you a topic that this server wrote in times of pandemic. That moment where we human beings in extreme moments bring out the best and sometimes the worst in us. In my case, I took the opportunity to write and express myself in life.

[Intro]
[Verse]
The morning dust settles on the windowsill
I watch the shadow of the clock stand still
A wooden bench where the wood is worn thin
I wait for the mercy to finally begin
No bells are ringing in the hollow square
Only the weight of the unanswered air
Only the weight of the unanswered air
[Chorus]
Lest prayer every day
Before the silver turns to gray
Lest prayer every day
To wash the bitter salt away
It is the heavy stone I choose to carry
The secret vow that I will never bury
[Verse]
The fields are dry and the well is low
I reap the seeds that I refused to sow
A tattered coat against the rising gale
Writing a story that is bound to fail
I trace the lines on a stranger's face
Seeking a flicker of a lost embrace
[Pre-Chorus]
The river bends but it never arrives
The debt remains for a thousand lives
I bend my knees on the gravel ground
Searching for a grace that cannot be found
[Chorus]
Lest prayer every day
Before the silver turns to gray
Lest prayer every day
To wash the bitter salt away
It is the heavy stone I choose to carry
The secret vow that I will never bury
[Outro]
