Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[G] Looking through the [D] windowpane,
[Em] Shadows dancing, [C] just like pain,
[G] Sunlight peeping, but [D] it feels the same,
[Em] I’m lost in the [C] echoes of your name.
(Chorus)
[G] Shadows and Sunlight, [D] we’re the same,
[Em] Struggling through the [C] joy and pain,
[G] Best Depression, [D] our band’s name,
[Em] In music, we [C] stake our claim.
(Verse 2)
[G] Drowning in a [D] sea of fears,
[Em] Finding solace [C] in the tears,
[G] Music is our [D] ship, my dear,
[Em] To navigate life’s [C] turbulent years.
(Chorus)
[G] Shadows and Sunlight, [D] we’re the same,
[Em] Wrestling with [C] life’s cruel game,
[G] Best Depression, [D] our band’s name,
[Em] In our tunes, we [C] tame the flame.
