Verse 1 – Low, breathy]
In the mirror, I don’t see me anymore
Just a stranger staring back from a shattered door
Every scar I trace is a story untold
Every tear I’ve cried feels a thousand years old
[Pre-Chorus – Rising tension, subtle riffs]
And I’ve been walking through the rain,
Carrying ghosts that know my name
Whispers in the wind won’t let me go,
I’m drowning slow…
[Chorus – High, soaring notes with riffs]
🎶 Lost eyes… (ri-i-ise) searching for a light in the night
Lost eyes… (fall-i-ing) but I can’t seem to find what’s right
Every shadow’s pulling me under
Every heartbeat sounds like thunder
I’m just a voice in the dark who cries…
With these lost eyes 🎶
[Verse 2 – Deep and low, jazz-inflected phrasing]
Empty streets are echoing my broken name
I’m a ghost of the girl I was yesterday
Every dream I had is a photograph burned
And the bridge I built is one I’ll never return
[Pre-Chorus – Building with harmonies]
And I’m falling through the cracks,
A melody that won’t come back
Even silence cuts me like a knife,
I’ve lost the fight…
[Chorus – Higher, more riffs and runs]
🎶 Lost eyes… (ri-i-ise) searching for a light in the night
Lost eyes… (fall-i-ing) but I can’t seem to find what’s right
Every shadow’s pulling me under
Every heartbeat sounds like thunder
I’m just a voice in the dark who cries…
With these lost eyes 🎶
[Bridge – Haunting, stripped down, soft falsetto]
Can you see me? Can you heal me?
I’m fading into nothing… slowly…
Will I ever… find my way back home?
Or am I gone… alone?
(Instrumental riff – emotional guitar/sax solo over piano chords)
[Final Chorus – Powerful, high and emotional]
🎶 Lost eyes… (ri-i-ise) searching for a light in the night
Lost eyes… (fall-i-ing) but I can’t seem to find what’s right
Every shadow’s pulling me under
Every heartbeat sounds like thunder
I’m just a voice in the dark who cries…
With these lo-o-ost…
(ri-i-ii-ii-ise, fall-ii-ing, drift-ii-ing…)
Eyes… 🎶
[Outro – Whispery, soft falsetto]
With these lost… eyes.
