Shadows in the Silence

(Verse 1) In the dim light of a fading day, Your laughter echoes, but you drift away. Walls are painted with shadows of us, Memories linger, like whispers in dust. (Pre-Chorus) Time is a thief, but it won’t take you from me, Every heartbeat reminds me of who we used to be. (Chorus) I won’t ever forget you, my friend, In the silence, your spirit transcends. I’m living for both of us now, With heavy hopes, I’ll learn to allow. This weight on my chest, still a part of the fight, But I'll carry it gently, step into the light. (Verse 2) When the night falls and darkness descends, I look to the stars, remembering your trends. Lost in the echoes, the wounds that we shared, I'm weaving my sorrow, each stitch bared. (Pre-Chorus) But in this world, I’m finding new souls, Hands intertwined, together we’ll grow whole. (Chorus) I won’t ever forget you, my friend, In the silence, your spirit transcends. I’m living for both of us now, With heavy hopes, I’ll learn to allow. This weight on my chest, still a part of the fight, But I'll carry it gently, step into the light. (Bridge) Each step feels heavy, like walking through rain, But the love that we built won't ever be vain. I promise to move on, though the scars remain, In the shadows, you shine through the pain. (Chorus) I won’t ever forget you, my friend, In the silence, your spirit transcends. I’m living for both of us now, With heavy hopes, I’ll learn to allow. This weight on my chest, still a part of the fight, But I'll carry it gently, step into the light. (Outro) So here’s to the moments, the laughter and tears, To the battles we fought, the conquering fears. Though the world feels heavy, together we'll stand, I carry your heart, forever my friend.
