Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] In the silence of the night, shadows play, Whispers in the halls where the children stray. Yet fear grips the heart, a darkened display, With every step down, she questions her way. [Verse 1] Twelve years old with a heavy heart, The weight of secrets, where to start? Stairs creak like ghosts in this hushed abode, Dreams of safety on this winding road. [Pre-Chorus] Mom’s asleep behind the door, Haily’s wondering what’s in store. Voices echo, a distant call, A tempest brews, within these walls. [Chorus] Oh, Haily don’t step, don’t break the night, You’re dancing with shadows, escaping the light. Rules whisper softly, but you feel the dread, In the house that's haunted with the words unsaid. [Bridge] The clock ticks slow, like a heartbeat’s refrain, Every second a pulse, wrapped in the pain. Good girls, bad girls, what’s right, what’s wrong? In the twilight, Haily, you stay strong. [Verse 2] Eyes wide open, she takes a chance, To face the darkness, a fleeting glance. Footsteps silent, heartbeat loud, In a world where silence speaks, she feels proud. [Pre-Chorus] Memories flicker, like candles in the dark, A flick of resolve, igniting a spark. Haily’s searching for her voice, a plea, Can she reclaim the girl she used to be? [Chorus] Oh, Haily don’t step, don’t break the night, You’re dancing with shadows, escaping the light. Rules whisper softly, but you feel the dread, In the house that's haunted with the words unsaid. [Outro] With a heart of courage, she finds her way, Through the haunted hall, she chooses to stay. One foot forward, the fear starts to fade, In a world of shadows, she’s unafraid.
