Midnight Whispers

Lonely streetlamp throwing shade at the moon

City's heartbeat plays a mournful tune

Pocket full of dreams but they’re coming loose

Every shadow whispers I ain’t got an excuse

Neon cracks the night like a secret untold

Highways hum stories of things we owed

Shoes worn thin from chasing the fight

But I'm still two steps shy of making it right

Let the midnight whisper the blues in my ear

Sing it raw and sweet till the silence clears

Dancing with shadows like they're my muse

Counting my steps to music I can't refuse

Every window's glowing a tale of their own

Dreams stitched in curtains lives unknown

Time works slow when you're running fast

Every minute I borrow breaks a moment of my past

Oh I’ve been searching broken alleys tonight

Trading smiles for stars that just ain’t shining bright

But the echo of my voice it ain’t afraid anymore

Shouting down the dark like I’ve been here before

Let the midnight whisper the blues in my ear

Sing it raw and sweet till the silence clears

Dancing with shadows like they're my muse

Counting my steps to music I can't refuse
