The Shadow Within

[Intro]
You're standing in the shadows, honey
Thinking it's the room that's changing
But it's you who's been hiding, betraying
Time to face the beast within, no more delaying

[Verse 1]
You've been living in the darkness, unaware
Blinded by the silence, unprepared
The mirror's telling lies, but now I see
It's not the room, it's your own reflection staring back at thee

[Pre-Chorus]
So step out from the shadows, break free from fear
Find the strength inside, 'cause the beast won’t disappear
You knew it all along, it’s been inside of you
Now it's time to learn how to stand and break through

[Chorus]
Just to make it clear, honey, the room's the same
It’s your reflection, not the space, that bears the blame
Learn to stand tall, face what's been inside
Unleash the beast, let your true self survive

[Bridge]
No more hiding, no more retreat
The beast was part of you, it’s time to meet
Embrace the chaos, break the chain
Find your courage, end the pain

[Outro]
So fuck off with your doubts, learn to fight
The beast in the shadows is your guiding light
Just to make it clear, honey, it's your own fate
Stand up now, don’t come too late
