Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] In the shadows, where I dwell, A hollow echo, a silent hell, Beneath the surface, a visage smiles, Hiding wounds that stretch for miles. [Verse 1] Pale moonlight paints my scarred skin, A heart encased, where shadows begin, I wear the mask, it never breaks, To shield them from the pain that aches. [Pre-Chorus] Whispers haunt my darkened mind, In this theater, I play blind, As I laugh and dance like a fragile ghost, Timing the burden I fear the most. [Chorus] Shining bright, a lighthouse beam, For family and friends, I live their dream, But deep inside, where shadows creep, I’m a secret the silence keeps. [Verse 2] Walking through halls of an empty past, Each step I take, a shadow cast, The weight of sorrow, a heavy chain, Yet in their eyes, I bury the pain. [Pre-Chorus] Impostor in this masquerade, Where every smile feels like a trade, I’ll hold the storm as I chase the light, For their sake, I’ll win this fight. [Chorus] Shining bright, a lighthouse beam, For family and friends, I live their dream, But deep inside, where shadows creep, I’m a secret the silence keeps. [Bridge] In the night, I scream unheard, A hidden heart can’t share its words, But in their laughter, I find a spark, A fleeting flame against the dark. [Chorus] Shining bright, a lighthouse beam, For family and friends, I live their dream, But deep inside, where shadows creep, I’m a secret the silence keeps. [Outro] So I’ll wear this smile till my end, To be the light for those I defend, Even when dead inside I remain, A flicker of hope amidst the pain.
