Shadows of seventeen

**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...
