[Verse]

The streets are empty my heart's a fight

Echoes linger in the hollow night

The clock just ticks but won’t unwind

Time’s a thief of a shattered mind

[Verse 2]

The rain taps soft like a mournful prayer

Whispers drift lost in the heavy air

I lit a match but the flame won’t stay

Darkness follows every word I say

[Chorus]

Oh shadows of the soul they won’t let go

Dancing in the places I used to know

Chains of memories they weigh me down

I wore a smile but I wear a frown

[Verse 3]

The bricks are cold like forgotten dreams

A river runs through my silent screams

I bare my soul to a ghostly sky

But no one listens when I ask why

[Bridge]

A broken bottle spills my fears

Cracks in the pavement catch my tears

Nothing but the wind to hear my plea

This hollow town’s a mirror of me

[Chorus]

Oh shadows of the soul they won’t let go

Dancing in the places I used to know

Chains of memories they weigh me down

I wore a smile but I wear a frown
