Shadows and Dawn

[Intro]
Watching through the window, I see the shadows fall
Tonight’s the night I wonder if I can still hear my call

[Verse]
Fingers on the strings, whispering a storm,
Heartbeats skipping, like a broken metronome,
Lightning in my veins, sparking through the dome,
Every word a firework, popping in my poem.
The mirror's cracking, but it ain't the glass,
It's the weight of my stare, heavy, won't let it pass,
Moonlit shadows creeping through the grass,
Chasing the echoes of a life I can't grasp.

[Verse 1]
She pours another glass, drowning out her fears
Lost in the haze, through the smoke she disappears
I want to hold her close, but she's drifting away
In a world where the spirits drown what she can't say

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm tired of the silence, tired of the pain
Wanna find a future where we both can gain
Hear me in the silence, I need you to see
A love that lifts us, wild and free

[Chorus]
Lightning in my veins, running wild, untamed,
Every spark a memory, can't keep it chained,
Feel the surge, the rush, the joy, the pain,
Lightning in my veins, I’ll never be the same.

[Verse 2]
Time's a thief, stealing seconds from my wrist,
Dreams slipping through my fingers like mist,
Hope's a candle, flickering in the abyss,
Fate’s a joker, playing tricks with a twist.
City lights blinking Morse code to the stars,
Wounds stitched with melodies, hiding the scars,
Every chord a lifeline, pulling me from afar,
Words like comets, burning bright, bizarre.

[Bridge]
Electric pulse, it’s a symphony in the dark,
Shocking revelations igniting the spark,
A million volts dancing, leaving their mark,
I’m the conductor, orchestrating my arc.

[Chorus]
I need someone who rises up, not just falls down
Someone who’s strong on her feet, not lost in a cloud
I want a life that builds, not a cradle of booze
A love that’s healthy, honest, and renewed

[Bridge]
Break the chains, breathe in new air
Find the strength to show you care
We can turn this around, start anew
A healthier love, just me and you

[Outro]
So here’s my plea, I hope you hear
It’s love that’s fighting through the fear
Let’s find the light, leave it behind
Together, a stronger peace of mind
