[Intro]
(Delicate piano and eerie synths)
Whispers in the darkness, shadows creep,
Echoes of a past that never sleeps.
[Verse 1]
In the night, I see their faces,
Haunting me through time and spaces.
A dance of ghosts beneath my skin,
Each nightmare pulls me back again.
[Pre-Chorus]
I wake to find the silence loud,
A shroud of memories, I’m lost in the crowd.
Time slips through like shattered glass,
Caught in the echoes of the past.
[Chorus]
(Complex harmonizing)
Oh, take me away from the glowing embers,
To a place where the dawn remembers.
In a labyrinth of dreams, I fight to break free,
But the chains of the night cling close to me.
[Verse 2]
Cacophony of shadows, they sway and sway,
Rhythms shifting like night turns to day.
Each heartbeat a drum, a fractured time,
Tangled stark truths in a twisted rhyme.
[Pre-Chorus]
In dreams where terror drips like rain,
The taste of anguish, the weight of pain.
Every recall, a tempest's tide,
In restless sleep, the past won't hide.
[Chorus]
(Choral harmonizing)
Oh, take me away from the glowing embers,
To a place where the dawn remembers.
In a labyrinth of dreams, I fight to break free,
But the chains of the night cling close to me.
[Bridge]
(Sonic shift, odd-time signatures)
Chase the specters, run from the light,
In fractured hours, traumas ignite.
Melodies twist with polyrhythmic grace,
A haunting score in this darkened space.
[Outro]
(Slowing down, eerie tones)
As dawn breaks slowly, colors fade,
Whispers haunt me, buried, laid.
In fractured silence, I finally see,
The nightmares fade, but they still breathe.
(Soft fading harmonies)
They still breathe…
Arkh
