Title: Shadows of the City
Verse 1
Under the bright lights,
Faces are lost, trapped in the screen.
The story of life is only a highlight,
But the soul is lost behind the image.
Pre-Chorus
Dreams are bought, sold cheaply,
Human values are weighed by money.
In this city, black is more real,
Behind the glitter, wounds remain.
Chorus
Shadows of the city, swallowing the light,
Chasing hopes that never come true.
In the hustle and bustle, the heart becomes mute,
Searching for meaning in a fake world.
Verse 2
Voices drown in the noise,
Justice is bound by chains of interest.
The strong continue to party,
The weak are silent, lost from the story.
Pre-Chorus
Promises are hung in the air,
While reality is burning.
This city beats without a soul,
Life goes on, but who feels it?
Chorus
Shadows of the city, swallowing the light,
Chasing hopes that never come true.
In the hustle and bustle, the heart becomes mute,
Searching for meaning in a fake world.
Bridge
What are we looking for, in the dark alley?
Behind the laughter, there are unspoken tears.
We are all puppets, invisible strings,
Moved by the world that keeps speeding up.
Chorus (repeat)
Shadows of the city, swallowing the light,
Chasing hopes that never come true.
In the hustle and bustle, the heart becomes mute,
Searching for meaning in a fake world.
Outro
Behind the smile, there is a deep wound,
We are lost in a dark dream.
Shadows of the city, keep following,
Until there is nothing left here.
