Shadows I Sign

Verse 1

I’ve been walking in circles, chasing my own ghost

Every shadow whispers secrets that I never chose

Counting all the reasons I should run away

But the fear keeps me anchored, I can’t escape today

Pre-Chorus

I wear my thoughts like armor, but it cracks in the rain

I’m screaming in silence, only echoes feel my pain

Chorus

Sign the contract with my own mistakes

I’m breaking and bending, but I can’t erase

All the nights I’ve been haunted by my own mistakes

I’m searching for light in the spaces I can’t face

Verse 2

The walls are getting closer, I can hear them breathe

Every lie I’ve swallowed makes it harder to believe

I write my name in ashes, hoping someone will see

The parts of me that crumble, the parts I’ll never be

Pre-Chorus

I wear my thoughts like armor, but it cracks in the rain

I’m screaming in silence, only echoes feel my pain

Chorus

Sign the contract with my own mistakes

I’m breaking and bending, but I can’t erase

All the nights I’ve been haunted by my own mistakes

I’m searching for light in the spaces I can’t face

Bridge

Maybe one day I’ll fold these papers of my past

Burn the ink, burn the pain, let the memories not last

But tonight I’m still tethered to the choices I have made

A prisoner of myself, in the darkness I parade

Chorus / Outro

Sign the contract with my own mistakes

I’m breaking and bending, but I can’t erase

All the nights I’ve been haunted by my own mistakes

I’m searching for light in the spaces I can’t face
