Verse 1:
In the shadow of the ruins, where the whispers roam,
I’m walking through the danger, but I’m still alone.
The specters of the past, they linger in the air,
But I’ll keep on moving forward, with a heart laid bare.
Chorus:
Oh, don’t you worry 'bout me, when the darkness calls,
If I should fall in the Zone, I’ll still stand tall.
In the depths of the unknown, I will find my way,
So don’t you worry 'bout me, if I don't come back today.
Verse 2:
The echoes of the lives lost, they haunt this place I tread,
But I carry all your love, it’s alive within my head.
Through the rusted bars and shadows, I search for my own path,
With the weight of all my choices, I embrace the aftermath.
Chorus:
Oh, don’t you worry 'bout me, when the darkness calls,
If I should fall in the Zone, I’ll still stand tall.
In the depths of the unknown, I will find my way,
So don’t you worry 'bout me, if I don't come back today.
Bridge:
I’ll take one step at a time, with the fear held tight,
But I keep my spirit strong, in the pale moonlight.
For the love we shared is a lantern in the night,
Guiding me through the chaos, till my final fight.
Chorus:
Oh, don’t you worry 'bout me, when the darkness calls,
If I should fall in the Zone, I’ll still stand tall.
In the depths of the unknown, I will find my way,
So don’t you worry 'bout me, if I don't come back today.
Outro:
So remember my dear, if I fade out of view,
Know I went with courage, and my heart full of you.
In the space between the shadows, I will write my song,
And don’t you worry 'bout me, I’ll still carry on.
