Sorrow of Darkness

Verse 1

In the hollow of my chest, a whisper crawls,

Shadows trace the corners where my heartbeat stalls.

Night unfolds its velvet cloak around my mind,

And in its silent symphony, my peace I cannot find.

Pre-Chorus

Every star above seems distant, cold, and blind—

Lost within the dark where hope is left behind.

Chorus

Oh, sorrow of darkness, sing your mournful tune,

Bathe these hollow chambers in your midnight gloom.

Let the tears fall freely in the blackest of the night,

‘Til dawn breaks open pathways back into the light.

Verse 2

Echoes of the past slip through my trembling hands,

Ghost-lit memories drifting like forgotten sands.

I wander through the labyrinth of endless gray,

Hoping for a whisper that will show me the way.

Pre-Chorus

Yet the echoes only answer with a hollow sound—

In the absence of the day, my soul is tightly bound.

Chorus

Oh, sorrow of darkness, sing your mournful tune,

Bathe these hollow chambers in your midnight gloom.

Let the tears fall freely in the blackest of the night,

‘Til dawn breaks open pathways back into the light.

Bridge

But in the depth of agony, a fragile spark remains—

A heartbeat in the stillness, pulsing through the chains.

Though darkness drapes around me, I feel a distant fire—

A silent revolution stirred by every mournful lyre.

Chorus (Softly)

Sorrow of darkness, cradle every bruise,

Wrap me in your quiet so I may find my truth.

Let the tears fall gently where the shadows lie,

And I will hold their meaning ‘til the morning sky.

Outro

In the hollow of my chest, the whisper calls once more—

A song of sorrow’s darkness that I’m learning to endure.
