Shadows and Salvation

[Intro]
Lost in shadows, caught between dreams and fears
A soul on the edge, whispering secrets in my ears

[Verse 1]
Walking the line where love and darkness collide
A dance with temptation I cannot hide
They call me an angel with a devil's smile
Taking what I need, walking that thin wild mile

[Pre-Chorus]
If only they knew what I hide beneath
The love I fake, the pain I weave
A siren’s song, a whispered plea
Trying to find a way to set myself free

[Chorus]
In this purgatory, I seek the light
Battling shadows deep in the night
Love’s the reason, love’s the fight
Living, craving, holding on tight

[Verse 2]
They surrender easily, unaware of the cost
A hollow victory, what’s gained is lost
Inside I’m aching, trying to break away
From this dark role I cleverly play

[Pre-Chorus]
If only they saw the tears I hide
A gentle soul in a wicked guise
The truth I hide, the love I seek
A fragile heart too tired, too weak

[Chorus]
In this purgatory, I seek the light
Battling shadows deep in the night
Love’s the reason, love’s the fight
Living, craving, holding on tight

[Bridge]
Dreams of a dawn where I’m free from the chains
Facing my fears, shedding the pains
A new chapter, a chance to heal
To love and be loved, to finally feel

[Outro]
Until that day, I walk this line
With hope in my heart and a fragile mind
Love’s the anchor, love’s the song
To guide me home where I belong
