Velvet Shadows

Verse 1

In the dark, your silence pulls me near,

A dangerous calm, but I feel no fear.

The mask you wear, the secrets you keep,

You haunt my nights, you invade my sleep.

Pre-Chorus

Every breath is a tether, pulling me in,

A beautiful crime, I’ll confess to the sin.

Chorus

Velvet shadows, wrapping me tight,

Your touch is fire in the dead of night.

A kiss like a ghost, but it burns so true,

I’m losing myself every time I find you.

Velvet shadows, I can’t let go,

The closer I get, the less I know.

Verse 2

Your hands write stories on my skin,

Each mark a vow, where you’ve always been.

You vanish by morning, but I still ache,

For the fleeting forever we always fake.

Pre-Chorus

You’re poison and cure, the sweetest disguise,

A secret I crave, a hunger that lies.

Chorus

Velvet shadows, wrapping me tight,

Your touch is fire in the dead of night.

A kiss like a ghost, but it burns so true,

I’m losing myself every time I find you.

Velvet shadows, I can’t let go,

The closer I get, the less I know.

Bridge

You linger like smoke, a dangerous flame,

I’ll chase your shadow, whisper my name.

Intimate silence, a deadly art,

You kill the world but protect my heart.

Final Chorus

Velvet shadows, wrapping me tight,

Your touch is fire in the dead of night.

A kiss like a ghost, but it burns so true,

I’m lost forever when I’m finding you.

Velvet shadows, I can’t let go,

The closer I get, the less I know.

Outro

Your mask is a cage, but I hold the key…

And in velvet shadows, you’re everything to me.
