Shadows of the Heart

[Intro]
In the shadows deep, I quietly weep
Lost in my fortress, secrets I keep

[Verse 1]
Walking through the night, my heart heavy and torn
Seeking warmth in the cold, feeling forlorn
Questions spinning wild, what am I doing wrong?
Trying to hold on, to where I belong

[Pre-Chorus]
Demons whisper tales of doubt and despair
Fighting monsters I can't see, I swear
But I rise each dawn, in darkness I glare
Searching for a strength that’s rare

[Chorus]
Broken but still fighting, against the dark
Craving love’s light, a gentle spark
Through the shadows I chase, I won’t fall apart
This battle within, deep in my heart

[Verse 2]
Every scar a story, every tear a clue
Trying to understand what I should do
Time’s a teacher, cruel but kind too
Waiting for a sign, a breakthrough

[Pre-Chorus]
Doubts try to drown me, but I stand tall
Fighting fears that try to make me crawl
In the silent night, I hear my call
To find the courage and break the wall

[Chorus]
Broken but still fighting, against the dark
Craving love’s light, a gentle spark
Through the shadows I chase, I won’t fall apart
This battle within, deep in my heart

[Bridge]
No need for apologies, I just need to be
To find my way back, set my spirit free
Every step I take, a new victory
In my own shadow, I plant a seed

[Outro]
So I’ll keep fighting, till I see the dawn
Even in shadows, I’ll move on
Strength from pain, in me it’s drawn
The final battle, I’ll carry on
