City of Shadows

Neon signs buzz but cold winds bite

Alleys whisper secrets in the night

Skyscrapers crumble in a silent mourn

A city forgotten where dreams are torn

The stars don’t shine behind the haze

Echoes of life in a smoky maze

Shadows dance where light used to glide

This city hides what it cannot confide

We'll break the dark with a thunderous glow

Rising above where the lost souls go

Light will pierce through this veiled despair

In the city of shadows

We’ll find repair

Streetlights flicker like a pulse that’s weak

Voices are fading too faint to speak

Glass shards shimmer reflecting pain

The city’s heart beats but it’s not the same

(Instrumental section with massive bass drops, shimmering leads, and haunting vocal chops)

Through the mist where the static calls

Graffiti cries bleed from broken walls

Every heartbeat fuels the night

Fighting for hope in the fading light
