A haunting and introspective song that captures the emotional turmoil of experiencing a week-long power outage. Through metaphorical lyrics, the song explores themes of isolation, silence, and the struggle to find light in dark times, leaving the listener to reflect on their own moments of solitude and introspection.
Verse 1:
In the stillness, shadows dance,
Electric dreams have lost their chance.
Echoes whisper through the night,
Flickering hopes in the absence of light.
Pre-Chorus:
The clock ticks slow, a croaky tune,
Time unravels, lost in the gloom.
Waves of silence crash and break,
A fragile heart in the silence quake.
Chorus:
Where are the voices, the songs unsung?
In the dark, I'm just a tarnished tongue.
Caught in a void where echoes play,
A week of shadows that won’t fade away.
Verse 2:
Staring at walls that know my name,
Colors sapped, all feels the same.
Forgotten stories fade to grey,
While candles flicker, the night holds sway.
Pre-Chorus:
Time took flight on wings unseen,
Moments slip like a fading dream.
The heavy air, an anchor deep,
I sift through thoughts that never sleep.
Chorus:
Where are the voices, the songs unsung?
In the dark, I'm just a tarnished tongue.
Caught in a void where echoes play,
A week of shadows that won’t fade away.
Bridge:
And when the dawn breaks, will I find,
The strength to leave this dark behind?
Or will the silence cling like breath,
In a world where light feels like death?
Chorus:
Where are the voices, the songs unsung?
In the dark, I'm just a tarnished tongue.
Caught in a void where echoes play,
A week of shadows that won’t fade away.
Outro:
So I stand beneath a starless sky,
Whisper my secrets, watch them fly.
In the wake of a stillness so profound,
I write my song without a sound.
