**Title: Shadows of Seventeen**
*(Verse 1)*
In the silence, she screams inside,
A heart so heavy, nowhere to hide.
Dancing with shadows in her mind's cruel game,
Fighting through storms that whisper her name.
*(Pre-Chorus)*
Mirror reflects a face full of pain,
Chasing the sunlight but caught in the rain.
With every heartbeat echoing doubt—
She’s searching for hope while screaming out loud!
*(Chorus)*
Shadows of seventeen are haunting me!
Riding waves on this darkened sea.
Bipolar tides pull me under again;
But I’ll rise from these ashes and fight 'til the end!
*(Verse 2)*
Whispers like daggers cut deep at night—
Thoughts spiral down into endless fright.
Promises broken by voices unseen;
Lost in a world where no one can glean.
*(Pre-Chorus)*
Each tear is a battle fought hard within,
Wrestling demons disguised as friends.
Through valleys low and mountains high—
She's learning to soar beneath stormy skies!
*(Chorus)*
Shadows of seventeen are haunting me!
Riding waves on this darkened sea.
Bipolar tides pull me under again;
But I’ll rise from these ashes and fight 'til the end!
* (Bridge) *
Hold onto dreams when they fade away—
Find strength in your scars—they’re here to stay!
Life’s not just darkness—it flickers bright too;
You’re more than your struggles—you'll break right through!
* (Breakdown - Instrumental ) *
(Outro Chorus)
Shadows may linger but won’t define,
The fire inside you will always shine!
Seventeen candles lighting up my way—
I’m alive—I am strong—I choose today!
(Final Line – Softly sung)
From shadows I'll step into light… I'm okay...
