Shadows & Mirrors

Intro – airy, echoing)
(Oh-oh… in the dark)
(Shadows… mirrors…)

⸻

(Verse 1)
Faces fading in the light
Truth gets twisted in the night
Every word you never say
Still pulls me your way

You move close, then disappear
Leave me reaching through the fear
Every glance cuts crystal clear
But I still want you here

⸻

(Pre-Chorus)
Every time I let you in
I don’t know where you end or begin

⸻

(Chorus)
Shadows and mirrors—I can’t see clear
Your reflection keeps pulling me near
Is it real or just disguise?
I’m lost inside your eyes

Shadows and mirrors—nothing is true
Every direction leads back to you
In the dark, I lose control
You’re the echo in my soul

⸻

(Verse 2 – shorter for radio)
Every touch fades into doubt
Pull me in, then push me out
Every line we cross again
We don’t know where it ends

⸻

(Pre-Chorus)
Every second pulls me deep
This is something I can’t keep

⸻

(Chorus)
(Repeat)

⸻

(Bridge – atmospheric, emotional lift)
Oh—tell me what’s real tonight
Oh—everything’s blurred in the light
We could walk away—but we won’t let go
We’re too far gone to ever know

⸻

(Breakdown – minimal beat)
(Shadows…)
(Mirrors…)
(I see you… I don’t…)

⸻

(Final Chorus – biggest, layered vocals)
Shadows and mirrors—I can’t see clear
Your reflection keeps pulling me near
Is it real or just disguise?
I’m lost inside your eyes

Shadows and mirrors—nothing is true
Every direction leads back to you
In the dark, I lose control
You’re the echo in my soul

⸻

(Outro – fading echoes)
(Shadows… mirrors…)
(Still calling you…)
