Phantom Silence

[Verse 1] I walk through crowds, yet no one sees A hollow shape, a whispered breeze I reach for hands that slip like sand Lost between, nowhere to stand [Chorus] Am I a ghost? Am I a dream? Screaming loud, but unheard screams Trapped in silence, blurred and cold Fading fast, a story untold [Verse 2] I cast a shadow, but leave no trace A nameless soul, an unseen face Reflections lie, they show me whole But in their eyes, I’m just a hole [Bridge] I paint my name in shattered glass But in their eyes, I’m just a hole [Bridge] I paint my name in shattered glass I leave my mark, but it won’t last I beg the world to let me stay But I dissolve, I slip away [Chorus] Am I a ghost? Am I a dream? Screaming loud, but unheard screams Trapped in silence, blurred and cold Fading fast, a story untold [Breakdown] Footsteps vanish, echoes break A silent tear, a slight mistake Falling deeper, sinking low Does it matter if they know? [Verse 3] One last breath, one last try But no one turns, no asking why I reach again, but touch the air And fade away—was I ever there? [Chorus] Am I a ghost? Am I a dream? Screaming loud, but unheard screams Trapped in silence, blurred and cold Fading fast, a story untold [Outro] No goodbye, no one sees Just a name lost on the breeze If I were real, if I had stayed Would they have seen me anyway?
