Shadows in the Dark

[Verse]
Shadows in the dark
They smile upon you
Their laughter's quiet
But it cuts right through
The night is thick
Like a heavy sigh
You ask the stars
But they don't reply
[Chorus]
Shadows in the dark
Smiling as they stay
Shadows in the dark
Never fade away
[Verse 2]
Whispers on the wind
Secrets they keep
You try to chase them
But the road runs deep
A broken clock
Ticking in your chest
Time stands still
But it never rests
[Chorus]
Shadows in the dark
Smiling as they stay
Shadows in the dark
Never fade away

introspective, rock, mellow; layered acoustic guitars with light electric riffs, and soft male vocals, soft rock, steady drumbeat
