Lonely Shadows

[Intro]
Lost in the shadows, gasping for air
Walls closing in, dealing with despair

[Verse 1]
I've tried to distance, shut everyone out
Thought I could stand alone, but I live in doubt
Friends say they’re there but they’re just a shadow
Lost so many homies, don’t wanna lose more

[Pre-Chorus]
Hypocrite at heart, I wear my pain loud
Wanna close my eyes, disappear in the cloud
Memories haunt me, they’re all I’ve got now
Feelings too heavy, don’t know how

[Chorus]
Lost to the pain, sinking in the drain
Laughing through the hurt, trying to stay sane
Living for the laughs, walking the lonely road
When no one's around, how to carry the load

[Bridge]
Darkness surrounds me, I can’t escape
Fighting my demons, no room for grace
Everyaway I turn, I feel the ache
But I keep moving, for my own sake

[Outro]
How do I keep from falling back?
Staring at the abyss, I face the attack
Lost in myself, trying to find the track
Standing alone, but I won’t crack
