1 ) Step too close, the air turns thin, A heavy hush, a voice within. Fingers trace the dusted pane, But when you look, there’s nothing to blame. Words unspoken, breath so cold, Lights are flickering, stories untold. A lonely presence, waiting still, Yet in the dark, it bends its will. (Chorus – Subtle power, building the weight of isolation and fear) Silence lingers, fading light, It won’t strike when there’s a crowd in sight. Wait alone, feel the weight, You’re in the grasp of the Shade. (Verse 2 – The ghost makes its presence known, a bit more tension) A single step, the floorboards creak, Shivers crawling down your cheek. A fleeting breath against your skin, A cold reminder: "It’s watching again." Faint transmissions, voices low, Radio hums with static’s glow. A question forms, but won’t escape, The answer lingers in empty space. (Bridge – Glitchy, electronic interference, eerie dissonance kicks in) (Soft distorted whispers: "Are you there?... Is it near?...") Static hum, your EMF spikes, Fingers trace through empty nights. One by one, they disappear… Stay too long, and so will you. (Instrumental moment: subtle but eerie lo-fi break, letting the mood sink in) (Verse 3 – The Shade finally acts, the tension peaks, but the power stays eerie and controlled) Flashlight dies, your breath runs thin, You call a name, but it won’t begin. Silent steps behind your back, But when you turn, the world fades black. Chilling laughter, echoes deep, A lingering voice that makes you weep. Alone at last, the hunt begins, And now you know – it always wins. (Final Chorus – Stronger, but still eerie and restrained, ending with power yet mystery) Silence lingers, fading light, It won’t strike when there’s a crowd in sight. Wait alone, feel the weight, You’re in the grasp of the Shade. (Outro – The sound distorts and fades, as if the Shade itself is slipping back into the dark) "Gone... but not forgotten..." --- (Final Chorus – Stronger, but still eerie and restrained, ending with power yet mystery) Silence lingers, fading light, It won’t strike when there’s a crowd in sight. Wait alone, feel the weight, You’re in
