[Verse] In the corner of a silent room I hide Crafting tales that never see the light Brush strokes of a life not known outside Whispered dreams cradled through the night [Verse 2] Pages filled with heartbeats words collide No echo returns from the empty sky I stand alone where inspirations bide Hoping someday my voice might fly [Chorus] I’m a phantom in this cabaret show Cloaked in shadows yet longing to glow I watch them dance and sing in the night Feeling the pain but in a way it's right [Verse 3] Stories linger on a table top scene Melodies float like a wistful dream No followers to trace where I've been But in the silence my world will gleam [long virtuosic instrument solo] (led you in another world) [Bridge] Grateful tears fall in unknown places Where loneliness and joy embrace us I weep for what could and never graces For the night hides the smile on our faces [Chorus] I’m a phantom in this cabaret show Cloaked in shadows yet longing to glow I watch them dance and sing in the night Feeling the pain but in a way it's right [Fadeout] (let's meet into another world together, where all our creations dance gratefully with each other belonging mattering)
