[Intro]
Whispers of a lost innocence, shadows in my mind
Carried wounds I can't undo, scars I try to hide
[Verse 1]
Born into a silent storm, no voice to claim my right
Fighting every hidden ghost, chasing fading light
Walls around a fragile heart, built from tears and fears
Lost in memories that haunt, through the lonely years
[Pre-Chorus]
Wanting love but terrified, caught between hope and doubt
Self-sabotage whispers lies, pushing love’s way out
[Chorus]
I fight the pain inside, shadows of what I can't undo
A hopeless romantic trying to find, a love that’s true
Fear of losing what I crave, chains I made from my past
Wishing I could let go, find peace at last
[Verse 2]
Childhood shadows linger, stealing innocence away
Now I wear my armor, afraid to let anyone stay
Love feels like a double-edged sword, so sweet yet so cruel
Holding on too tight, letting go, a constant duel
[Pre-Chorus]
Desire laced with fear, echoing in my mind
Building walls so tall, afraid to be confined
[Chorus]
I fight the pain inside, shadows of what I can't undo
A hopeless romantic trying to find, a love that’s true
Fear of losing what I crave, chains I made from my past
Wishing I could let go, find peace at last
[Bridge]
Broken pieces of a past long gone, trying to rebuild
Hoping someday love will find me, a heart finally healed
But the fear screams so loud, I retreat and hide
Longing for connection, yet terrified to confide
[Outro]
Maybe someday I’ll break free, from these chains that bind
Find the love I’ve been searching for, peace within my mind
Till then I’ll fight the shadows, hold onto the light
Hoping for a dawn that ends this night
