Lyrics

[Verse]
Walking down the alley in the dead of night
Shadow whispers secrets in the pale moonlight
Footsteps echo louder with each passing stride
A mystery at midnight there's nowhere to hide

[Verse 2]
Cigarette smoke curls like a serpent in the dark
Lost souls whisper soft from a dismal park
Eyes scan faces looking for a clue
In this city of shadows nothing's ever true

[Chorus]
Who's the phantom pulling all the strings
Who's the villain with the hidden wings
Solving puzzles under neon glow
Detective's mission now it's time to go

[Verse 3]
Blood stained pavement tells a haunting tale
Justice dressed in black leaves behind a trail
Gunshot echoes through the empty street
A hero's journey bittersweet

[Bridge]
Under streetlight's glow a figure stands alone
Truth hides in corners unknown
Piecing fragments from a shattered dream
Nothing ever
Ever as it seems

[Verse 4]
Street signs point to nowhere a labyrinth of lies
The truth wears a cloak of a thousand alibis
Every liar wears an honest face
In a city where shadows leave no trace
