4. Song Lyrics
(Verse 1)
When the light of the day fades away,
And the shadowed sun starts to play,
We’re left alone, hearts of stone,
Walking down these darkened alleyways.
(Pre-Chorus)
We roam the streets under the neon lights,
Lost souls searching, burning bright,
Oh the painted smiles, and the false delights,
Under the shadowed sun, we ignite.
(Chorus)
Shadowed Sun, where have you gone?
Left us in darkness, singing our song,
We’re just another heel, trying to belong,
Under your glow, where it all went wrong.
(Verse 2)
Silent screams in the city of dreams,
Invisible scars, hidden by the gleams,
We wander, we wonder, we drown in streams,
Of thoughts under the shadowed sun’s beams.
(Bridge)
The stars are fading, the night’s invading,
The city’s wearing, our dreams abrading,
Under the shadowed sun, we’re trading,
Our hopes for fears, our love for hating.
(Chorus)
Shadowed Sun, your reign isn’t done,
We’re still standing, we haven’t run,
We are another heel, under your gun,
Fighting the darkness, our battle’s begun.
(Outro)
So, here we are, under the shadowed sun,
With our broken dreams, and battles won,
Yes, we are another heel, but we’re not done,
We’ll rise from the ashes, when the night is done.
