Shades of Grey Aria

The candle dims, its flame so low Melancholy's all we know [Pre-Chorus] Whispers of a love that’s gone An aria that can’t go on A quiet place where shadows play Memories in shades of grey In tears we drown beneath the waves Our hearts encased in silent shades We fall apart, the light fades away A symphony in the night's serenade We wear our grief, a heavy chain In whispers, love, we call your name Through shadows deep, our whispers fail Echoing in this hollow vale We search for stars, our guiding flame Lost souls adrift, we're not the same The world so still, we bear the strain In silence bound, we mourn in vain With every breath, a shroud of pain In depths unknown, we sink, we wane Darkness grips, a cold embrace As sorrow carves its haunting space [Chorus] In this night where hope seems slain Tears like rivers, pour like rain Our echo's lost in endless night The stars above deny their light We cry aloud, the soul's deep plight In sorrow's grip, we lose the fight We cleave to dreams that once were bright But time has robbed them of their might
