(Intro)
Yeah…
Sometimes the hardest place to escape from…
is your own mind.
(Verse 1)
Playing hide and seek with the things I can’t erase,
your shadow’s still the closest thing I feel these days.
Unrequited love, yeah, the quietest war,
smiling on the outside while I’m breaking at the core.
I run through the city but I’m stuck in the same place,
chasing old memories I can never replace.
The moon watches over me, silent in the night,
painting your name in the dark with a broken light.
They said time heals everything, maybe they were wrong,
’cause every night without you feels like the same old song.
I tried to escape from the world inside my head,
but every road I take leads me back to you instead.
(Pre-Chorus)
So I close my eyes when the whole world fades,
sometimes darkness feels safer than the light of day.
I hide my feelings where nobody can see,
only the moon knows what’s happening to me.
(Chorus)
I’m running underneath the moonlight,
where my pain turns into a melody.
Playing hide and seek with my own heart,
looking for you in everyone I meet.
Unrequited love taught me how to breathe alone,
I drown my emotions in a world of my own.
I escape reality just to feel okay,
but the morning always brings me back to yesterday.
(Verse 2)
How many times did I say, “I’m over you”?
Then one little memory makes the whole thing new.
I turn my scars into verses, my pain into sound,
‘cause some broken pieces can’t be put back down.
City lights shining, but my soul stays grey,
surrounded by people, still feeling miles away.
You’re not just my past, you’re the story unfinished,
the one missing page that my heart still wishes.
If I could go back, maybe I’d say more,
maybe I’d fight harder before you walked out the door.
Now I write these lines instead of losing sleep,
every word is a promise of the love I couldn’t keep.
(Bridge)
The moon shines on everybody…
Maybe you’re looking at it right now too.
Maybe we’re not that far apart…
Maybe it’s just the silence between us.
(Final Chorus)
I’m running underneath the moonlight,
where every tear becomes a memory.
Playing hide and seek with destiny,
trying to find the person I used to be.
Unrequited love made me who I am,
laughing out loud while I’m breaking again.
Reality fades when the night comes alive,
and I chase your light…
even knowing you’ll never be mine.
(Outro)
Yeah…
Some people leave your life…
but they never leave your soul.
