Shadows grow in empty rooms
Dreams fade away like smoke
Hands are tied to clocks and chains
Hope sinks without a trace
Faces blur in crowded halls
Grey skies hang above the noise
Voices drown in hollow calls
Life feels like a muted choice
Lost in the midst of silent cries
Whispers echo in the dark
Reaching out to the fading light
Gone before we find the spark
Days blend in a restless haze
Strangers wear familiar smiles
Paths we've walked seem miles away
Nothing left to reconcile
Empty chairs and vacant stares
Journeys lost in twist and turns
Moments slip from here to there
Lessons raw but never learned
Lost in the midst of silent cries
Whispers echo in the dark
Reaching out to the fading light
Gone before we find the spark
Empty chairs and vacant stares
Journeys lost in twist and turns
Moments slip from here to there
Lessons raw but never learned
