Shadows of Regret

In the shadows of my mind, I silently cry

Lost within the echoes of a hollow midnight

Feeling empty, like a boat adrift on distant seas

Weight of my regrets hanging over me

Losing hope in every breath I take

Haunted by mistakes I can't forsake

But somewhere deep inside, a flicker remains

A fragile spark that fights through the chains

Whispering softly, a plea to believe

To find a way to just breathe again

Oh, fill this aching soul, heal what's broken inside

Even in the darkness, I need a light to guide

Tears fall like rain, cleansing all the pain

Trying to rise from all these scars and chains

If only I could forgive myself tonight

Let go of the burden, set my heart alight

A promise to begin again, to be kind

Leave behind the guilt that's been entwined

Though the night is long and shadows creep

I'll hold on to hope, I’ll find my peace
