Shadows in My Sky

Shadowed whispers in the night, they judge what they can't see

A soul misunderstood, craving just to be free

Painted in shades of midnight, I walk this lonely hall

Colors clash with their dullness, I'm breaking every wall

Eyes that stare with coldness, hearts that don't understand

I wear my scars like jewelry, my truth they can't withstand

Why can't I be more than their shadowed perception?

Why am I the villain in their silent rejection?

Dancing in the darkness, I’m broken but alive

Shunned for my differences, I refuse to hide

Can anyone see me, beneath this ghostly guise?

Accept me for who I am, in this world of lies

Pierced with solitude’s loneliness, I breathe in silent screams

Drowning in the silence, haunted by my dreams

They call me outcast, they call me strange

But I just want to be loved, not to be rearranged

Why can’t I be more than their shadowed perception?

Why am I the villain in their silent rejection?

Dancing in the darkness, I’m broken but alive

Shunned for my differences, I refuse to hide

Can anyone see me, beneath this ghostly guise?

Accept me for who I am, in this world of lies

Through the whispers and the shame, I find my strength inside

No more hiding, no more pain, I’ve got nothing to hide

Let the world turn cold, I’ll still stand tall

For my difference is my light, my all, my call

So here I am, unmasked and true, shining in my gloom

Standing in my shadow, I’ve found my room

Accepted at last, for who I am, no more disguise

Living my truth, beneath these gothic skies
