Chorus:
If you are alone in a room
It's dark in there and you are afraid
And you feel you might collapse soon
Push the button and wait
The light comes out
And shadows as well
Come alive all around
Like stories they tell
They dance on the walls
They stretch and they sway
But stay where you are
And they'll slowly fade away
Like a silent spell
They whisper your name
From corners unseen
Turning the room
Into a strange dream
Full of living thoughts
And shattered illusions
Escaped from their roots
They fly, transformed into visions
They drift through the air
Like fragments of time
Pieces of memory
Without reason or rhyme
Some glow like embers
Some fade into gray
Some carry old echoes
That never went away
And as the night deepens
The silence will grow
Revealing the secrets
You thought you'd never know
Then slowly the visions
Dissolve with the dawn
Leaving soft traces
Of the places they've gone
The room stands unchanged
Yet nothing's the same
For you have walked through the shadows
And answered their name.
Chorus:
If you are alone in a room
It's dark in there and you are afraid
And you feel you might collapse soon
Push the button and wait
Pictures on the wall,
Strange dead angles
Climbing high, then they fall
From the clouds like burning candles
Flickering in the dark
Like forgotten sparks
Traces of old fires
Still glowing in our hearts.
Sewing broken dreams
With delicate golden wires
The same images and faces
Keep returning in my dreams
Like they were painted there
Reminding all of sins
That a mind can spare
A walk on the sand
Leaves traces like signs
That will soon disappear
Raised by a wave, no need to fear
Erased by the tide
As if they were never there
And just the wind carries whispers
Of steps long gone
Where the ocean keeps secrets
And time drifts on
Nothing remains
But the rhythm of sea
And the fading reflection
Of what used to be
Images, footprints, dreams and faces
Drifting through forgotten places
Wrapped in echoes of the past
Trying hard, but never last
Floating on the silent streams
Between memories and dreams
Fading with the morning light
Vanishing into the night
The visions and the shadows,
Hidden in abandoned meadows
Watching from the edge of time
Like a distant, voiceless chime
Calling through the misty air
Leaving traces everywhere
Shadows woven deep within
Where the dreams and fears begin.
