"SOLD MY SOUL TO A MELODY"
[Verse 1]
They told me I was made for this, a star before my time,
But nobody warned me that the lights could burn me blind.
They dressed me up in diamonds, but the chains still feel the same,
I sing the songs they write for me, but who knows my real name?
[Pre-Chorus]
When the curtains fall, it’s only me (me, me, me),
I have to face when the lights go out.
The echoes fade, but I’m still here,
Can you hear the rhythm of my loneliness?
[Chorus] [Explosive]
I sold my soul to a melody,
My choice got me chained to the rhythm.
I gave my all, tears for a symphony,
Singing alone, I’m just an echo in the spotlight.
[Verse 2]
I smiled for every camera, I danced until my feet went numb,
They told me not to question, just be grateful for what comes.
But no one sees the lonely nights, the mirror full of doubt,
The girl who only wanted love, but they just pushed her sound.
[Pre-Chorus]
When the curtains fall, it’s only me (me, me, me),
I have to face when the lights go out.
The echoes fade, but I’m still here,
Can you hear the rhythm of my loneliness?
[Chorus]
I sold my soul to a melody,
My choice got me chained to the rhythm.
I gave my all, tears for a symphony,
Singing alone, I’m just an echo in the spotlight.
[Bridge] [powerful vocal moment athemic build up]
If I could turn back time, would I chase another road?
Or would I still be standing here, with a voice but not my soul?
Is it worth the love they show me, when I barely know myself?
Can a song replace the silence, when there’s nobody else?
[Final Chorus]
I sold my soul to a melody,
My choice got me chained to the rhythm.
I gave my all, tears for a symphony,
Singing alone, I’m just an echo in the spotlight.
[Outro]
Singing alone... (Just an echo...)
Singing alone... (But they still own me...)
I sold my soul to a melody...
