Verse 1: (Arpeggiated clean guitar, melodic, breathy vocals) Silent whispers in the night, I hear them calling Lost within the echoes, shadows are installing Fading hope, a broken light, slipping through my hands Caught between the dark and bright, trying to make a stand Pre-Chorus: Breathing in the silence, fighting through the pain Caught inside the storm, can’t escape the rain Chorus: (High-gain distorted guitars, powerful vocals) Shadows fade, but they won’t forget me Breaking through, I’ll seize reality In the storm, I find my energy Rising up, I’m finally free Post-Chorus: (Chorus repetition with layered harmonies) Fade away, fade away, Shadows in my mind, they try to stay Fade away, fade away, I won’t be hidden in the dark today Verse 2: (Arpeggiated clean guitar, subtle grit in vocals) Cracks beneath my surface, but I carry on Fighting through the darkness, till the break of dawn Every scar a story, written in my soul Rising from the ashes, I regain control Pre-Chorus: Breathing in the darkness, chasing out the fear Standing in the fire, year by year Chorus: (Heavy distortion, intense delivery) Shadows fade, but they won’t forget me Breaking through, I’ll seize reality In the storm, I find my energy Rising up, I’m finally free Post-Chorus: (Chorus repetition with harmonic layering) Fade away, fade away, Shadows in my mind, they try to stay Fade away, fade away, I won’t be hiding in the dark today Bridge: (Slow build, clean guitars returning, subtle vocal grit) Hold on, through the chaos, I will survive Fighting to the end, I’ll stay alive One more step into the unknown Find my strength, reclaim my throne Final Chorus: (Full distortion, layered vocals, wide stereo sound) SHADOWS FADE! (emotional) I’VE BEEN LOST, BUT NOW I’M FOUND! Breaking chains, I’ll stand my ground— SHADOWS FADE! (emotional) (End on a sustained guitar note with echoes and reverb)
