Shadowbound by Selvy - Zona

Lyrics

(Verse 1)

I keep your pictures in a silver box,

Hidden like a sin I never want to lose.

You walk into the room and my pulse goes quiet—

Darling, you’re the storm I willingly refuse.

Every lie, every bruise on my heart,

I wear them like diamonds in the dark.

Because loving you is a fever I never treat,

A ghost I invite to sleep beside me.

(Pre-Chorus)

And if you ever walk away,

I swear the world would lose its shape—

I'd pack my dreams, burn this place,

Disappear without leaving a name.

(Chorus)

‘Cause I’m shadowbound, chained to you,

Even when you break me in two.

I don’t want freedom, I don’t want light—

Only your hands pulling me back into the night.

If I’m not yours, who would I ever be?

You’re the only madness that feels like home to me.

(Verse 2)

People say I should run, but they don’t understand—

My soul was stitched to yours the moment you took my hand.

You hurt me softly, like a beautiful curse,

But I’d rather bleed for you than love someone else worse.

I’ve seen futures without you—

They’re cold like winter without a sky.

You’re the only truth I’ve ever wanted,

Even when the truth makes me cry.

(Pre-Chorus)

And if you ever turn away,

I’d leave this city in a day—

Cross a border, change my face,

Lose myself in some faraway place.

(Chorus)

‘Cause I’m shadowbound, chained to you,

Even when you tear my heart in two.

I don’t want saving, I don’t want light—

Just the sound of your breath pulling me through the night.

If I’m not yours, then I’m nobody—

You’re the only madness that feels like home to me.

(Bridge)

Don’t set me free—

Freedom is a cage without your name.

Keep me on your darkest leash,

I’ll love you through pleasure, through rain.

Tie my heart to yours forever,

I won’t ask you to be kind—

Just promise when the world grows colder,

You’ll still let me live inside your mind.

(Final Chorus)

‘Cause I’m shadowbound, forever yours,

Even when loving you becomes a war.

I don’t fear losing myself tonight—

I only fear a life where you’re not by my side.

If I’m not yours, I won’t know how to breathe—

You’re the only madness

I never want to leave.
