Echoes of the Night

[INTRO] (Instrumental: Moody jazz guitar and subtle percussion) [VERSE] Shadows on the wall, they whisper your name In this empty room, I play a lonely game Every step I take, echoes in the dark Searching for a sign, a flicker, a spark [Pre-CHORUS] Every breath, every sigh Cuts through the silence, makes me high But the emptiness is vast and wide I'm lost in the tide [CHORUS] Lonely hearts and empty streets Where our dreams and silence meet Crying out, but no one hears Lost in the echoes of my fears [VERSE 2] Moonlight through the blinds, it paints the night blue A symphony of sighs, thinking of you Time is standing still, every second crawls In the void, I build these fragile walls [pre-CHORUS 2] Every tear, every cry Breaks the quiet, lets me fly But the emptiness is a canyon deep I fall, but I can't sleep [CHORUS 2] Lonely hearts and empty streets Where our dreams and silence meet Crying out, but no one hears Lost in the echoes of my fears [interlude] (Instrumental: Soaring guitar solo with a Latin flair) [BRIDGE] Wandering through the maze of my mind Seeking the truth, but it's hard to find Loneliness, my constant friend Will this sorrow ever end? [CHORUS] Lonely hearts and empty streets Where our dreams and silence meet Crying out, but no one hears Lost in the echoes of my fears [OUTRO] (Instrumental: Gradual fading of guitar and percussion, leaving a haunting piano note) [END]
