Lost inside the blurry shadows of the lonely midnight [Verse 1] Way out past the corner I heard that rhythm call Thin as a wire Through the alley wall I followed it slow Under broken signs Feet on the asphalt Mind out of time Something in me leaned Like I knew the route One more step in And the rest shut out The night got thick My name got thin Then my shadow turned And pulled me in [Bridge] Hands got loose Breath got sharp I was moving blind Through the dark Every bar hit clean Every turn hit right Like a lock clicked open In the middle of night [Chorus] Out of the shade Into the light Now I remember My own name I was dancing with dark I was losing my way Now the night falls behind And I walk away [Verse 2] Shadow on my shoulder Matching every glide I made a clean escape Then I doubled back inside Triple-time tongue On a brutal run Word by word I carved Till the fear came undone I shook that ghost off Turned the pain to art Every line precise Like a blade in the dark No room for the hollow No room for the cage I was writing my way Out of that stage [Pre-Chorus] Hands got loose Breath got sharp I was moving blind Through the dark Every bar hit clean Every turn hit right Like a lock clicked open In the middle of night [Chorus] Out of the shade Into the light Now I remember My own name I was dancing with dark I was losing my way Now the night falls behind And I walk away [Bridge] If you hear that call In the dead of the street Don’t kneel to the hush Don’t follow empty feet I met my own ghost And I let it split When the dark said “stay” I said “watch me quit” Pull me out Pull me out From the cut of the night I was dancing with dark Now I step to the light [Outro] I step to the light I step to the light No chain on my shadow No fear in my sight
