(Intro - Synth heavy, dark pop beat drops)
Yeah… uh…
(Verse 1)
Streetlights bleed a sickly grey, another endless night
Same damn scene, the shadows play, bathed in fading light
You paint the town in vibrant hues, a kaleidoscope of cheer
While I’m stuck here in shades of blues, haunted by my fear
(Chorus - Vocals get slightly more melodic, but still with an edge)
I see your world, a canvas bright, shimmering and bold
But I won't join, no, not tonight, my story’s yet untold
You dance among the sunlit grace, with laughter in the air
I’ll stay within my darkened space, cause I don't really care
(Verse 2)
You speak in tones of golden sun, about the joy you find
My words are echoes, one by one, lost to the deaf and blind
You offer me a hand to rise, to step into your day
But I prefer these veiled disguise, where shadows love to stay
(Chorus - More intensity in the vocals now)
I see your world, a canvas bright, shimmering and bold
But I won’t join, no, not tonight, my story’s yet untold
You dance among the sunlit grace, with laughter in the air
I’ll stay within my darkened space, cause I don't really care
(Bridge - Beat drops out, vocals become more raw and vulnerable)
Maybe once, a flicker burned, a hope for something more
But every lesson that I learned, locked me behind this door
This monochrome is all I know, it’s in my veins, my soul
So let your colors brightly glow, I'll take my own control
(Chorus - Full power, vocals are layered with harmonies)
I see your world, a canvas bright, shimmering and bold
But I won't join, no, not tonight, my story’s yet untold
You dance among the sunlit grace, with laughter in the air
I’ll stay within my darkened space, cause I don't really care
(Outro - Beat fades out slowly with synthesized echoes)
Yeah… in my darkened space… don’t really care…. nah…
(final heavy breath and beat stops)
