Verse 1: Lying here in silence, my thoughts begin to roam, Trying to recall the laughter, the warmth of a home. But all I see is darkness, shadows that block the light, I reach for happy moments, but they vanish out of sight. Pre-Chorus: I want to reach back, but they slip right through my hands, Like whispers in the night, like footprints in the sand. Names and faces linger, but they’re hard to define, Lost in the silence, feels like I'm running out of time. Chorus: Oh, I’m chasing shadows, trying to hold on tight, Reaching for the pieces that vanish in the night. With every gentle nudge, a friend pulls me near, But the ghosts of my childhood are so hard to clear. Verse 2: In conversations, I feel the distance grow so wide, Friends share their stories, but I just can’t decide. I laugh and nod along, but inside I feel so cold, A book without a cover, with a story left untold. Pre-Chorus: I’m piecing it together, like a puzzle in my mind, Hoping that the smiles will be the treasures I can find. The echoes from my past linger in the air, I’m learning how to breathe, I’m learning how to care. Chorus: Oh, I’m chasing shadows, trying to hold on tight, Reaching for the pieces that vanish in the night. With every gentle nudge, a friend pulls me near, But the ghosts of my childhood are so hard to clear. Bridge: I’ll dig through the darkness, I’ll fight for the light, With every step I take, I’ll reclaim my sight. Though the road is long, I won’t let it break me down, I’m rising from the ashes, I’ll wear my heart like a crown. Chorus: Oh, I’m chasing shadows, trying to hold on tight, Reaching for the pieces that vanish in the night. With every gentle nudge, a friend pulls me near, But the ghosts of my childhood are so hard to clear. Outro: So here’s to the journey, to the memories I’ll find, With every stitch and heartbeat, I’m reclaiming my mind. Though the past feels distant, I’ll bring it back to me, In the echoes of my heart, I’ll learn to be free.
