In The Shadows

[Intro]
Shadows creeping, silence screams,
Lost within these shattered dreams.

[Verse 1]
Fading light beneath the gloom,
Echoes of a silent doom.
Hope a distant, fading star,
Wishing on what’s fallen, scars.

[Pre-Chorus]
Bitter winds, they cut so deep,
Promises I can't keep.
Night consumes the fading day,
Lost in endless shades of grey.

[Chorus]
Surrender to the dark inside,
 hopeless tears I can’t hide.
Alone with despair’s cold hand,
A broken soul, a sinking stand.
Dismay in every sigh,
Angry tears I won't deny.
Darkness wraps my heart so tight,
In this despairless night.

[Bridge]
Shattered hope, a hollow cry,
Bitter truth I can’t deny.
Anger burns a burning flame,
Lost inside this endless shame.

[Outro]
Fade into the shadows deep,
Hoping someday I might keep,
Some fragile piece of light,
In the darkness of the night.
