I'm scared of the shadows they echo your name
Afraid to reach out and play this losing game
If I call will you answer or leave me in the rain
My heart's in a cage feels like it's all in vain
Every message I type then delete on repeat
Words tumble tumble but none land on their feet
I'm haunted by silence it cuts so so deep
Loneliness follows me even in my sleep
I don't wanna bother you with my silly dreams
But my heart keeps shouting louder than it seems
Afraid you'll call me foolish for the things I say
So I hold back drowning in this silent bay
I see your smile from across the crowded room
Do you feel it whisper can you sense the doom
Somewhere between hope and where the fears bloom
We dance this wild dance in an infinite loom
If I open my heart will you run far away
Or stand here beside me come what may
These tangled thoughts they won't let me stay
In a world without you my skies turn all grey
I don't wanna bother you with my silly dreams
But my heart keeps shouting louder than it seems
Afraid you'll call me foolish for the things I say
So I hold back drowning in this silent bay
