Silhouettes

[Intro] In the shadows where the echoes play, Lost souls talk, drifting further away, City lights flicker, but I’m still unseen, In this crowded space, just a ghost in between. [Chorus] Can you feel me reaching in this empty place? Every shadow hides a face I used to chase, Longing for a glance, just a moment to be, In this noisy world, will you notice me? [Verse 1] Stumbling through these streets, laughter fills the air, But I’m just a shadow, lost without a care. Parties blaze with colors, I’m stuck in black and white, Heartbeat echoes gently, swallowed by the night. They talk about their dreams, mine seem so far, A flicker in the dark, just a lonely star. Tracing lines of stories begging to be shared, In the quiet moments, I find the warmth I bared. [Chorus] Can you feel me reaching in this empty place? Every shadow hides a face I used to chase, Longing for a glance, just a moment to be, In this noisy world, will you notice me? [Verse 2] Remember those days, when laughter felt so real? Moments that connected, warmth I could feel. But this mask I wear grows heavier each year, Hiding all my battles, wrapped tight in fear. Outside, I’m smiling, but inside, I bleed, A garden full of thorns, it’s my heart that they feed. Faded old photos of friendships that fade, Moments that shaped me, the price that I paid. [Bridge] But in this silence, I found my own song, Each note a reminder, that I’ve been here long. In the quiet, I see the beauty in me, A tapestry woven from threads of the free. To all the outsiders, lost in the dark, Embrace who you are, ignite your spark. [Chorus (Reprise)] Can you feel me reaching in this empty place? Every shadow hides a face I used to chase, Longing for a glance, just a moment to be, In this noisy world, will you notice me? [Outro] As the shadows fade, I find peace in the night, Embracing my journey, stepping into the light. With every whispered secret, every sigh of relief, I’m carving my path, beyond disbelief. So here’s to the shadows, the beauty they bring, In this world of connections, I’m ready to sing.
