Moments in the Shadow

Walking shadows, can't escape the night

Feeling hidden, out of sight

Caught in the fire, burning inside

Yearning for peace, no more fight

Why do I keep letting you walk all over me?

Like I’m nothing but a ghost lost at sea

Pretending I’m fine when I’m breaking apart

Inside this storm, trembling heart

When will the world finally be free?

From chains that bind, from misery?

Every breath a gift, a fleeting chance

To dance in the rain, to unlock the trance

Living in the moment, we’re chasing the breeze

Unfolding the story like leaves in trees

Some have forever, some just a glimpse

But every heartbeat’s a sacred hymn

Why does every little thing feel so hard?

Life’s a wild shuffle, a reckless card

Yet in this chaos, we find our way

Seeking light through shades of gray

Wish I knew how it’d all turn out

In happiness and pain, in doubt

But here we are, spinning fast

Moments like shadows that never last

So let’s breathe in the universe’s song

Together, where we belong

Living for every why and how

Embrace the now, make it somehow
