[Intro]
In the silence, echoes linger,
Memories dance like shadows in the night,
A hollow heart, an empty chamber,
Searching for a flicker of light.
[Verse 1]
I walk these streets, lost in the distance,
A ghost of laughter haunts my days,
Empty spaces where you used to be,
Time’s a thief, it takes and frays.
[Pre-Chorus]
How do I move when the world keeps spinning?
Faces change, but I remain,
Anger burns for the ones who left me,
Why’s this life so cruelly vain?
[Chorus]
Dreams are lies that twist the knife,
Whispering sweet, then stealing life,
Why do they spark a fire in my chest,
Just to leave me here, feeling less?
Cruel dreams, why do you play?
Leading me on, then fading away.
[Verse 2]
I grip your memories like pieces of glass,
Each cut a reminder of joy that wouldn’t last,
Once we painted the sky with hope and desire,
Now I’m left with shadows, cold and dire.
[Pre-Chorus]
In the stillness, I shout to the heavens,
Searching for answers where none can be found,
What kind of fate just lets you slip away?
Unfair world, you’re so tightly bound.
[Chorus]
Dreams are lies that twist the knife,
Whispering sweet, then stealing life,
Why do they spark a fire in my chest,
Just to leave me here, feeling less?
Cruel dreams, why do you play?
Leading me on, then fading away.
[Bridge]
Yet in this darkness, there’s a glimmer of grace,
I try to believe, find solace in place,
We’ll meet again, in a realm beyond despair,
Where love rekindles, and pain fades to air.
[Chorus]
Dreams are lies that twist the knife,
Whispering sweet, then stealing life,
Why do they spark a fire in my chest,
Just to leave me here, feeling less?
Cruel dreams, why do you play?
Leading me on, then fading away.
[Outro]
So here I stand, amidst the silence,
With every heartbeat, I’ll find my way,
For love transcends, it cannot die,
In dreams of you, I’ll learn to fly.
