Shadows of the Heart

Silent whispers in the night, shadows whisper cruel truths

Can’t escape the hurt that lies beneath, in the echo of our youth

Walking through a maze of broken dreams, insincere words cutting deep

Eyes that judge and stare, tearing at my soul, secrets they will never keep

Bittersweet lies, they painted scars, invisible but so real

In this game of pretend, who will be the one to heal?

Cause I’ve seen the darkness swell, behind the masks they wear

Love turns to venom, in this cold, dark lair

Hold on, I hear the plea, from the depths of me

But the cruelty’s so loud, drowning out any hope I see

People can be so cruel and hurtful, tearing us apart

Shattered illusions, broken hearts, lost in the dark

But I’m rising from the ashes, fighting through the pain

Searching for the light within, breaking free again

( EDM beat kicks in, a catchy rhythm intertwined with trap drum patterns )

Pour the poison out tonight, feel the darkness fade away

Rising flames within my soul, I’ve got to seize the day

In a world so cold, where kindness is sold, I’ll stand my ground

Speak my truth, let the music be the sound, that breaks the bounds

Every hurtful word, every lie they told, I’ll cast aside

In this melody, I find my peace, nowhere to hide

Though they may be cruel, I won't break, I’m stronger now

With every note I sing, I reclaim my power somehow

Touch the stars, escape the dark, it’s time to heal and grow

People can be so cruel, but I refuse to let them show
