Shadows We Invent

Midnight dancing on the windowpane

Traces of us, every whispered name

Staring at the ceiling, mapping out your fate

All the little secrets that we decorate

Truths exchanged under table light

We both hold back what’s real inside

Shadows we invent between the lines

Talking in circles, missing all the signs

Can you hear my heart through the static and the noise?

Every gentle confession just a subtext voice

We’re walking close, but missing where the sun shines

Coffee cooling by the edge of dawn

Rewinding footsteps once you’re gone

Pouring every story in a fragile cup

Telling half the truth, but is that enough?

Truths exchanged under table light

We both hold back what’s real inside

Shadows we invent between the lines

Talking in circles, missing all the signs

Can you hear my heart through the static and the noise?

Every gentle confession just a subtext voice

We’re walking close, but missing where the sun shines

If I’d written one more honest line

Would our fables still unwind?

Breathing silences we can’t erase

Hoping time will mend what words won’t face

Shadows we invent between the lines

Talking in circles, missing all the signs

Can you hear my heart through the static and the noise?

Every gentle confession just a subtext voice

We’re walking close, but missing where the sun shinesPages turning in the hush of night

Maybe tomorrow, we’ll step into the light
