Title:
“Creeping Shadows”
Full song lyrics:
Verse 1: (Em–G–D–A)
Em G D A
In the cobwebbed corners of the past we roam,
Em G D A
Unearthed a rhythm, found a haunted home.
Em G D A
Records spinning in the attic twilight,
Em G D A
A bewitched hobby born in the dead of night.
Chorus: (C–G–Am–F)
C G
Creeping shadows, under the moon,
Am F
In our melody, they find their tune.
C G
In the echoes of the past, we delve,
Am F
Finding ourselves, losing ourselves.
Verse 2: (Em–G–D–A)
Em G D A
Perched on the edge of the raven’s flight,
Em G D A
With the spider’s spin, we weave the night.
Em G D A
In the ghost’s whispers, we find our song,
Em G D A
In the moon’s glow, we belong.
(Repeat Chorus)
