Whispers in the Stone

(Verse 1) She tiptoes past the midnight hall, Moonlight flickers on the wall. Velvet hem against the floor, A hush behind each creaking door. (Pre-Chorus) Candles flicker, shadows bend, She swears she hears the walls pretend— A whisper lost, a breath unknown, A name etched deep in ancient stone. (Chorus) Oh, the castle keeps its secrets tight, In corridors that shun the light. She walks alone where no one goes, Where silence hums and cold wind blows. Her heart beats loud, her courage thin, But still she dares to wander in. (Verse 2) A rustle near the tapestry, A sigh beneath the balcony. She clutches lace and holds her breath, Each step a dance with dreams of death. (Bridge) Mirrors crack with ghostly grace, Portrait eyes that watch her face. She’s not the first to seek the truth, But none returned with proof. (Final Chorus) Oh, the castle sings in minor chords, Of vanished queens and broken lords. She walks the dark with trembling grace, A princess lost in time and place. Her dress still whispers as she roams, Through haunted halls and hollow homes. (Outro) And somewhere deep beneath the stone, A voice says softly, “You’re not alone.”
