Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Caught in your shadow
Standing right next to you
You laugh with your friends
I fade in the back of the room
You look right through me
Like I’m just some stranger
But you live in my mind
Like I’ve known you forever
[Pre-Chorus]
Ten years in my head
And you can’t even meet my eyes
How can I feel this much
When you feel nothing inside?
[Chorus]
I’m caught in your shadow
You don’t even know my name
To you I’m a face in the crowd
To me you’re a fire in the rain
It breaks my heart just thinking
How close and how far we are
I just wanna love you
But I’m talking to your guard
[Verse 2]
I replay our first words
Like a tiny movie
Two seconds of small talk
Meant a lifetime to me
You say “see you around”
Like it doesn’t matter
I go home and write stories
Where we end up together
[Pre-Chorus]
I built a decade of dreams
On every half-smile you gave
How do I let go
Of something I never had?
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Maybe one day you’ll turn
And finally really see me
Not the stranger in the corner
But the heart that’s been waiting
Until that day I’ll stand here
Half in light
Half in blue
Learning how to love myself
Instead of chasing you
[Chorus]

Moody modern pop ballad with intimate male vocals, soft electric piano and warm bass. Verses stay sparse, close-mic, with subtle pads and finger-snap groove; chorus blooms with wide synths, airy harmonies, and a steady mid-tempo beat. Second half adds gentle guitar swells and a lifted final hook, leaving space for a vulnerable, breathy delivery., breaks
