Song Title:
“Silhouettes of Freedom”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
[Em] Waking to a world that’s [G] breaking,
[D] Chasing dreams that keep [A] shaking,
[Em] Trapped in walls that we’re [G] making,
[D] Seeking silhouettes of [A] freedom.

(Chorus)
[Em] Tear down the walls, [G] let the shadows fall,
[D] In the light, we stand [A] tall.
[Em] Hear the echoes call, [G] breaking through it all,
[D] We’re the silhouettes of [A] freedom.

(Verse 2)
[Em] Painted faces in the [G] mirror,
[D] Reflections getting clearer [A],
[Em] Change is closer than it [G] appears,
[D] We’re the silhouettes of [A] freedom.

(Chorus)
[Em] Tear down the walls, [G] let the shadows fall,
[D] In the light, we stand [A] tall.
[Em] Hear the echoes call, [G] breaking through it all,
[D] We’re the silhouettes of [A] freedom.

(Bridge)
[Em] Breaking chains, [G] erasing fears,
[D] We stand together, [A] the path is clear,
[Em] Shattering silence, [G] the end is near,
[D] We’re the silhouettes of [A] freedom.

(Chorus)
[Em] Tear down the walls, [G] let the shadows fall,
[D] In the light, we stand [A] tall.
[Em] Hear the echoes call, [G] breaking through it all,
[D] We’re the silhouettes of [A] freedom.

(Outro)
[Em] In the darkness, [G] finding light,
[D] We’re the silhouettes of [A] freedom tonight.
