[Intro]
Whispers in the dark, oh, the shadows we’ve danced,
Caught in a whirlwind, lost in this trance.
Tangled hearts beating, but you keep turning cold,
Just a fleeting moment, but our story’s so old.
[Verse 1]
Three years of silence, yet the echoes still ring,
You painted my world with your darkest of things.
Accusations like daggers, you tore through my trust,
I held on to love, like it was all we had left.
[Pre-Chorus]
You saw me at my worst, saw me fall and break,
Yet never did you gather, never did you take
The pieces of my heart that you left in despair,
Each promise unfulfilled, whispers lost in the air.
[Chorus]
But I have been your fortress, your light in the storm,
While you called me a liar, I was just trying to warm
The love that you sold me, a promise you’ll keep,
Now tell me, which part of this love makes you sleep?
[Bridge]
I carry those twins, they’re a part of your name,
But you turned your back, now it’s just a cruel game.
Paternity tests couldn’t test all the pain,
And every unkind word left an indelible stain.
[Verse 2]
You missed every heartbeat, the cries of our dreams,
Where were you, my love, in those silent screams?
The foster care battles, I fight all alone,
While you promise me love, still you stand like a stone.
[Pre-Chorus]
Stuck in your cycle of love and of hate,
I’m a vine growing wild, but you keep pulling the fate.
But I’m tired of waiting, tired of the game,
Time to let go of this caution and shame.
[Chorus]
But I have been your fortress, your light in the storm,
While you called me a liar, I was just trying to warm
The love that you sold me, a promise you’ll keep,
Now tell me, which part of this love makes you sleep?
[Outro]
So here’s to the shadows, to the love that won’t die,
I’ll rise from the ashes, I’ll learn how to fly.
With or without you, my heart will reclaim,
This story we wrote, but I’ll change up the name.
