Whispers of Innocence
Evelyn Moore

Verse 1:
In the shadows where regret lies,
Echoes of a broken alibi.
They painted me with the darkest brush,
A world of silence, a shattered hush.

Chorus:
Oh, these chains won’t break my heart,
Every whisper, tearing me apart.
I scream for justice, but none will hear,
Living in a nightmare, drowning in fear.

Verse 2:
A teardrop falls on my trembling hands,
Still, they twist the truth, and no one stands.
Behind these bars, I fight the flame,
But the world outside knows not my name.

Chorus:
Oh, these chains won’t break my heart,
Every whisper, tearing me apart.
I scream for justice, but none will hear,
Living in a nightmare, drowning in fear.

Bridge:
I dream of freedom, but it slips away,
The light is fading, turning into gray.
Accused of sins I never committed,
In this cold world, my spirit’s outwitted.

Verse 3:
With every heartbeat, I plead my case,
But in this courtroom, it's a faceless chase.
A killer's night, they claim it's me,
But deep inside, I know I'm free.

Chorus:
Oh, these chains won’t break my heart,
Every whisper, tearing me apart.
I scream for justice, but none will hear,
Living in a nightmare, drowning in fear.

Outro:
So here I stand, in the shadows I’ll stay,
A ghost of innocence, lost in decay.
No hope will find me, no prayers will come,
In this life of shadows, I am forever numb.
