(Verse 1) The winter winds howled down through Ferry’s spine, A freezing season where the sun declined. We carried ghosts across the frozen ground, And in the quiet, no clear answers found. But here we sit beside the fading fire, Through all the shadows and the tangled wire. Joe, you held my hand when the night grew cold, A silent promise in the stories told. (Chorus) We are the bruised, but we are not the broken, We are the truth that finally got spoken. In this small room, away from the biting wind, We found our shelter where the hurt had been. Erikah and Joe, in the embers’ glow, Learning the grace of letting the hard times go. (Verse 2) It wasn’t easy, peeling back the layers, The unspoken fears, the quiet midnight prayers. I saw the exhaustion resting in your eyes, The heavy toll of all our compromised. But when you look at me across the room, A sudden dawn breaks through the lingering gloom. We share the weight, we share the heavy load, Two weary travelers on a jagged road. (Chorus) We are the bruised, but we are not the broken, We are the truth that finally got spoken. In this small room, away from the biting wind, We found our shelter where the hurt had been. Erikah and Joe, in the embers’ glow, Learning the grace of letting the hard times go. (Bridge) The ice is melting on the windowpane, And though the scars of yesterday remain, There is a solace in the way you breathe, A steady rhythm making me believe. That every storm we had to navigate, Was just the anvil where we forged our fate. The world outside can spin out of control, But in your arms, I find an anchored soul. (Chorus) We are the bruised, but we are not the broken, We are the truth that finally got spoken. In this small room, away from the biting wind, We found our shelter where the hurt had been. Erikah and Joe, in the embers’ glow, Learning the grace of letting the hard times go. (Outro) So let the wind howl on outside our door, We have each other, we don't need much more. Safe in the quiet, safe within the storm, In the Alaskan night, keeping each other warm.
