Shadows in the Night

(Verse 1) I wake up to the silence, echoes of your lies, Thought we built a fortress, now it crumbles to the sky. Every promise whispered, now they cut like glass, Love was meant to freedom, but you left me in the past. (Pre-Chorus) I gave you every piece of me, Thought you’d hold it tenderly, But now I’m just a memory, While you play your games endlessly. (Chorus) You took my heart, you broke it down, Painted smiles but wore a frown. Dancing in the shadows of your deceit, Thought you were my love, turned out to be a thief. Now I’m picking up the pieces of what’s left of me, In the wreckage of our dreams, can’t you see? You’re just a ghost in the fading light, Left me standing here, shadows in the night. (Verse 2) You wore your mask so well, I never saw the signs, While I was dreaming love, you were charting your designs. Thought we were forever, thought we had it all, But in your arms, I’ve learned the hardest fall. (Pre-Chorus) Thought you’d keep my heart safe, Thought we’d dance in our own space. Now I’m left to find my way, With every tear that stains my face. (Chorus) You took my heart, you broke it down, Painted smiles but wore a frown. Dancing in the shadows of your deceit, Thought you were my love, turned out to be a thief. Now I’m picking up the pieces of what’s left of me, In the wreckage of our dreams, can’t you see? You’re just a ghost in the fading light, Left me standing here, shadows in the night. (Bridge) But I’ll rise from the ashes, learn to be free, Find the strength inside, reclaiming me. Your memory’s fading, just a lesson learned, I’ll break these chains, watch the tables turn. (Chorus) You took my heart, you broke it down, Painted smiles but wore a frown. Dancing in the shadows of your deceit, Thought you were my love, turned out to be a thief. Now I’m picking up the pieces of what’s left of me, In the wreckage of our dreams, can’t you see? You’re just a ghost in the fading light, Left me standing here, shadows in the night. (Outro) So here’s to the future, to the days ahead, I’ll find my way, no more tears to shed. You were just a chapter in my story bright, I’m moving on from the shadows in the night. Moving on from the shadows in the night.
