Lingering Shadows

[Intro] [Verse 1] This room feels heavy, thick with doubt My own reflection, worn and worn out Childish whispers hold me tight Afraid to face the fading light If goodbye's the word you need to say Don't linger here, just walk away 'Cause every corner holds your trace A ghost I cannot seem to chase [Chorus] These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real There's just too much that time cannot erase Your shadow fills the space, I can't escape its hold This emptiness is freezing, bitter cold And I'm so tired of being here Suppressed by all my childish fears [Verse 2] I remember how you used to shine A brilliant light, once wholly mine Now only echoes fill the air Of promises beyond repair Your face invades my restless sleep Your voice makes sanity retreat The life you left, a heavy chain Binding me with endless pain [Chorus] These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real There's just too much that time cannot erase Your shadow fills the space, I can't escape its hold This emptiness is freezing, bitter cold And I'm so tired of being here Suppressed by all my childish fears [Bridge] When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears When you'd scream, I'd f***t away all of your fears I held your hand through all of these years Gave everything, dissolved my own frontiers I've screamed inside that you are gone But in this silence, I'm still alone Though you're not here, you're everywhere This hollow truth, beyond compare [Chorus] These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real There's just too much that time cannot erase Your shadow fills the space, I can't escape its hold This emptiness is freezing, bitter cold And I'm so tired of being here Suppressed by all my childish fears [Outro] (When you cried...) (When you'd scream...) (I held your hand...) You still have all of me... All of me...
