Echoes and Shadows

Untold feelings dwell within
With swirling cold
Burning deep

I’m going insane more every day
Because I cannot say
The words that dwell within
Burning deep in me

Years I spent longing for shadows in the mirror
I’m so tired, please carry me back home
Every play has an end
This act’s final chord is played
Forever gone

Echoing deep the pain left
I feel it still inside
No more games
Take care of a tiny heart

Loving you is a painful pleasure
Hurting deep and sweet
Cannot reach looking through the mirror
I see the only treasure
I’m afraid of this feel
But I cannot run away from who I am, from this love

Loving you is like creating a new world
Like kissing the brightest light
It’s never enough
Yet more than I can keep in heart

Please hear me
Take another step
Feel the song within
It’s not a game
