Souls come at night

Lyrics

SOULS COME AT NIGHT [INTRO — whispered] Stop telling me who you think I am. You don’t know me. You don’t even know my name. ⸻ [VERSE 1] My world is cold and soaked in rain, no sunlight ever finds my face. I walk these streets without a name, a ghost that time forgot to save. I’ve been lost inside myself for a hundred years or more. Somewhere I stopped counting days— they all felt empty like before. No beautiful words, no promises ever stayed. No light, no love ever found its way. To me. ⸻ [PRE-CHORUS] So don’t tell me tomorrow will be different. I’ve seen too many tomorrows where nothing ever changed. ⸻ [CHORUS — powerful clean vocal] I’M WAITING UNDER THE FULL MOON, ALONE AT THE EDGE OF NIGHT. Waiting for a soul to find me when the living close their eyes. ’CAUSE SOULS COME OUT AT NIGHT, when no one else can see. You may never see me standing there— but you’ll feel me when I’m near. ⸻ [VERSE 2 — darker] Lost years lie behind me like graves without a stone. I stopped asking how much longer a man can walk alone. No home waiting in the distance. No voice calling out my name. Only rain remembers every road I walked in pain. I learned to speak with shadows because nobody else stayed. And somewhere in the darkness, I forgot how love was supposed to feel. ⸻ [CHORUS — heavier] I’M WAITING UNDER THE FULL MOON, ALONE AT THE EDGE OF NIGHT. Waiting for another lost soul to recognize mine. ’CAUSE SOULS COME OUT AT NIGHT, when every mask disappears. You don’t have to see me— you’ll know when I am near. ⸻ [BREAKDOWN — spoken → screamed] Where were you… all those years? When I called? When I fell? When I forgot if I could feel anything at all? [whisper] You call me lost… [silence] I WASN’T LOST! I WAS LEFT BEHIND! ⸻ [BRIDGE — almost silent] And tonight… I’m standing here again. Same moon. Same rain. Same fucking silence. But somewhere behind me… I hear footsteps. Maybe it’s the wind. Maybe it’s another memory. Or maybe… [whisper] it’s you. ⸻ [FINAL CHORUS — massive] SOULS COME OUT AT NIGHT! When the darkness knows our names. When two broken strangers recognize the same familiar pain. SOULS COME OUT AT NIGHT! Maybe I don’t wait alone. And if you’re just as lost as me— come closer. You don’t have to be my light. Just stay with me inside the dark tonight. ⸻ [OUTRO — rain / whispered] A hundred years… maybe more. I don’t remember anymore. But tonight… I heard footsteps. And for the first time— I didn’t run. [long silence] I’m waiting.
