Shadows and Sunrise

[Intro]
Sunrise whispers, tears in my eyes
Chasing shadows, trying to rise

[Verse 1]
From sun up to sun down, the pain stays near
Fighting through the hours, despite the fear
Longing for the days when I felt free
A time when I wasn't just surviving, but living me

[Pre-Chorus]
Memories of my past self, glowing bright
Now I stand in the darkness, searching for light
Tired eyes telling stories of battles fought
But I hold on to hope, dreaming of what I sought

[Chorus]
Oh, I miss the person I used to be
Feeling lost in this new reality
Though the weight feels heavy on my chest
I whisper to my soul, I’ll do my best
Wishing for brighter days ahead
Holding on, even when I feel dead
My body tired but my spirit’s still strong
Keeping faith that I will find where I belong

[Bridge]
Age may try to slow me down
But inside, I won’t drown
Each step I take is a fight
Guided by hope in the night

[Outro]
Sunset fades, but I will not fall
Through shadowed moments, I hear my call
Old wounds heal with time’s gentle rain
And I believe I’ll find strength again
