“Shadows of the Past”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Em7 Cm7
Dancing in the echoes, of a time long past,
Gm7 Bm7
Lost in the shadows, where no sun is cast.
Em7 Cm7
Chasing the ghost, lost in regret,
Gm7 Bm7
In the shadows of the past, where the sun never sets.
(Chorus)
Em7 Cm7
In the shadows of the past, we find our truth,
Gm7 Bm7
In the echoes of our choices, lies our youth.
Em7 Cm7
We are but shadows, etched in the stone,
Gm7 Bm7
Marked by the past, yet, into the future, we are thrown.
(Verse 2)
Em7 Cm7
Running from memories, that refuse to fade,
Gm7 Bm7
Haunting our dreams, in the midnight shade.
Em7 Cm7
The past is a shadow, that forever lasts,
Gm7 Bm7
In its cold embrace, we are firmly cast.
(Chorus)
Em7 Cm7
In the shadows of the past, we learn to cope,
Gm7 Bm7
In the echoes of our pain, we find our hope.
Em7 Cm7
We are but shadows, bound by the past,
Gm7 Bm7
In its relentless grip, our fate is cast.
