Shadows in Silence

In the silence of the night, where shadows loom,

A heavy heart drags me to this empty room.

Whispers of doubt fill up every space,

Chasing the light, I've lost the race.

Waking up feels like a fight,

The sun breaks in but it doubts my sight.

Mirror cracks with every glare,

Reflections hide what’s underneath my care.

Every smile, a mask I wear,

Behind the laughter, there's despair.

Fading echoes of dreams I knew,

It's hard to breathe when I'm lost in blue.

Take me higher, break these chains,

Find the colors in my pains.

'Cause I’m sinking, drowning slow,

In this river where the shadows flow.

Walking streets with heavy feet,

Each step echoes, a silent defeat.

Voices lingering that pull me down,

Searching for hope in this ghost town.

Every sunrise blurs and bends,

I chase the light, but it always ends.

Falling deeper, yet I try to stand,

Reaching for something I can’t understand.

Take me higher, break these chains,

Find the colors in my pains.

'Cause I’m sinking, drowning slow,

In this river where the shadows flow.

But in the darkness, a flicker shines,

A voice that whispers, “You’ll be fine.”

With every tear and every sigh,

I’ll hold onto hope, I will not die.

Take me higher, break these chains,

Find the colors in my pains.

'Cause I’m sinking, drowning slow,

In this river where the shadows flow.

So I’ll rise, I’ll find my way,

In this battle, I’ll learn to stay.

Through the dark, I’ll see the dawn,

One step at a time, I'll carry on.
