[Verse 1]
I wear the night like a second skin
Heavy weight
It pulls me in
The stars above don’t feel so bright
When your heart's a shadow swallowing light
[Prechorus]
Every time I taste the sun
It feels like a battle lost
Not won
[Chorus]
I’m the shadow keeper
The midnight dreamer
Good days feel strange
Like a distant fever
I hold the dark so close
It’s mine
When light breaks through
It doesn’t shine
[Verse 2]
Laughter feels like a foreign tongue
A melody from a song unsung
Even joy’s a fleeting ghost
I can’t let go of what I know the most
[Prechorus]
Every time the morning comes
I’m searching for where I’ve come undone
[Chorus]
I’m the shadow keeper
The midnight dreamer
Good days feel strange
Like a distant fever
I hold the dark so close
It’s mine
When light breaks through
It doesn’t shine
