Darkness

Lyrics

[INTRO] Darkness escapes along the edges, an insidious voice murmuring betrayal, A muted chorus of a tempest I’m incapable of loving. [VERSE 1] In the stillness of night, her smile draws me close, A distant flicker, a specter in the shadows. My heart thunders like a fading ember, Flickers of hope extinguished, no one to remember. Silence erects its barriers, a fortress born of dread, Each breath a battle in a mind already misled. I tread the path of shattered promises, a fragmented way, The love that once blazed bright is now but gray. [CHORUS] I am ensnared in shadows, sinking in my own despair, A whirlwind of torment that clutches tight its snare. The ghost of affection, a mirage reduced to ash, A flame that flickers, leaving only memories that clash. [VERSE 2] This inner strife is ceaseless, a war of tangled thought, I dissect each whisper, like a surgeon caught. My mind a knotted rope of longing and regret, A ceaseless storm that gnaws the edges of my silhouette. Every echo of her name is a thunderclap, The wind of doubt blows, a relentless map. [BRIDGE] Can I break the chains of this phantom fight? Or will I fade into the endless night? The stars refuse to guide my wandering soul, All I see is darkness, a hollow, empty bowl. [CHORUS] I am ensnared in shadows, sinking in my own despair, A whirlwind of torment that clutches tight its snare. The ghost of affection, a mirage reduced to ash, A flame that flickers, leaving only memories that clash. [HOOK] Shadows, shadows, they pull me deeper still, In the void where hope has lost its will. [OUTRO] Silence returns, the echo fades, Leaving only the weight of forgotten days. The night clings to the broken heart's scar, And I watch the world burn, one fragile star.
