[Intro]
Fading lights, shadows grow, where did the warmth go?
Silent screams, broken dreams, nobody knows
[Verse 1]
Once I saw a glimpse of sunlight, felt like destiny was mine
A fleeting spark in a dark night, false hope in disguise
Trust was a fragile thread, hanging by a thin line
Love was just a game I played, losing every time
[Pre-Chorus]
Happiness, a mirror cracked, reflections untrue
Joy was fleeting, something I never knew
Closer I got, the more it slipped away
Caught in the trap I can't escape
[Chorus]
Love that’s out of reach, like stars too far to touch
Light turns to darkness, happiness to sorrow much
Staring at the dream, it taunts and it teases
A mirage, a phantom, only leaves me creased
Is this love real or just a fleeting shadow?
Caught in a nightmare, wishing I could just let go
Holding on to shadows, they fade in my hands
Lost in the illusion where I don’t stand
[Verse 2]
Trusted a lie, to find only emptiness inside
Thought I had everything, but there’s nothing left to try
Vision blurred, hope deferred, drowning in despair
What was once tender, now just cold, empty air
[Pre-Chorus]
Every plan I made, dreams I held so tight
All unraveling in the dead of night
Success and failure dance in my mind
Questions unanswered, peace I cannot find
[Chorus]
Love that’s out of reach, like stars too far to touch
Light turns to darkness, happiness to sorrow much
Staring at the dream, it taunts and it teases
A mirage, a phantom, only leaves me creased
Is this love real or just a fleeting shadow?
Caught in a nightmare, wishing I could just let go
Holding on to shadows, they fade in my hands
Lost in the illusion where I don’t stand
[Bridge- sad violin solo]
Trying to grasp the elusive, slipping through my fingers
What once felt like forever, now just lingering whispers
Is it worth the pain, the endless ache?
Or should I accept this heartbreak?
[Outro]
Darkness falls where light used to shine
Love gone, only memories align
Fading echoes of a dream so true
Left with just the ghost of you
[End]
Forever chasing a shadow, forever lost in the night
