Left in Shadows

[Verse]
Born from silence, her shadow the sun,
Arms were closed, never saw me run.
Tried to patch the cracks in her cold,
But her warmth was a story never told.
[Chorus]
Mama, I reached through the fire,
Hands burned, but the scars climb higher.
Can't hug a ghost when she's running away,
But I stayed, still loved you anyway.
[Verse 2]
Her love a phantom, a cruel masquerade,
Hollow calls, echo in what she betrayed.
Fed my heart scraps of her distant gaze,
Searching for her in forgotten days.
[Bridge]
Won’t cry, but the tears fall dry,
Buried my joy where wild dreams lie.
Even in neglect, built her a shrine,
A mother I worshipped, trapped in time.
[Chorus]
Mama, I reached through the fire,
Hands burned, but the scars climb higher.
Can't hug a ghost when she's running away,
But I stayed, still loved you anyway.
[Outro]
Ashes of love, floating in dusk,
Her touch is gone, her trust just rust.
Yet in this pain, a lesson I see,
How to be more than she was to me.
