Shadows of Solitude

[intro] [Verse] In the shadows, I reside In a world that's mine, but I can't hide (hide) The weight of silence, a heavy cloak Where no one listens, the words are choked [Verse 2] Amidst the chaos, lost in thoughts Emotions tangled, in battles fought (fought) The ache inside, invisible scars Yearning for solace, beneath the stars [Chorus] But I won't let them take my light away I won't let them steal my joy today I'll rise above the whispers and the lies Embrace the solitude that makes me shine [Verse] Sometimes I feel like I'm in my own little world Lost in thoughts in a dark dreamworld, The weight on my shoulders, it's hard to even breathe But I keep going, keep pushing though no one sees [bridge, strings] But I won't let them take my light away I won't let them steal my joy today [bridge] I'll rise above the whispers and the lies Embrace the solitude that makes me cry [Chorus] But I won't let them take my light away I won't let them steal my joy today I'll rise above the whispers and the lies Embrace the solitude that makes me cry [outro]
