Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 The fire’s gone cold, but embers still breathe, Whispers in the walls pull secrets from me. Every step I take, the floorboards moan, This house feels alive, but I walk alone. Chorus Play me down low on a broken guitar, Let the silence bleed where the lost souls are. In the black of night, I hear them sing, Carving my name on the shadows of the strings. Verse 2 The candle melts slow, wax tears on the floor, I swear I saw your ghost slip out the door. The air tastes of ashes, the silence is thin, I strum the old chords and it drags me back in. Chorus Play me down low on a broken guitar, Let the silence bleed where the lost souls are. In the black of night, I hear them sing, Carving my name on the shadows of the strings. Verse 3 The windows breathe shadows, curtains twist and sway, Every chord I strike wakes the ghosts that stay. The floorboards remember, the walls whisper your name, And the strings pull me further into this endless game. Bridge Every note’s a confession, every chord a sin, The echo reminds me of where we’ve been. The deeper I go, the darker it clings, Pulling me under the weight of the strings. Now the shadows rise, they’re alive in my hands, Each strum a tether, each pull a command. Chorus Play me down low on a broken guitar, Let the silence bleed where the lost souls are. In the black of night, I hear them sing, Carving my name on the shadows of the strings. Outro (haunting / layered whispers / cold) Play me down low… Where the lost souls wander… I’m carved in shadows… Of these broken strings… The walls are listening… The floorboards remember… Every note I strike… Pulls me under again… I hear them calling… Faint at first, then louder… Their voices in the wood… Their whispers in the wind… And still I play… I strum the dark… I answer the house… It answers me back… The shadows tighten… The strings pull harder… And I am not alone… Never alone… Play me… Forever… On the shadows of the strings…
