Fading from black

Sitting alone in the quiet of night,Shadows creep in, they swallow the light.Dreams once burned bright, now ashes remain,Caught in the web of my sorrow and pain.
I reach for the stars, but they’re too far to hold,This fire inside me is flickering cold.
Fading to black, I’m slipping away,Lost in the echoes of things I can’t say.The weight of the world, it’s pulling me down,Fading to black, without a sound.
Memories haunt me, they whisper and scream,Chasing the ghost of a long-shattered dream.The mirror reflects what I’ve tried to deny,A hollowed-out soul in a tear-streaked sky.
I scream at the void, but it won’t answer back,These chains of despair have started to crack.
Fading to black, I’m slipping away,Lost in the echoes of things I can’t say.The weight of the world, it’s pulling me down,Fading to black, without a sound.
But deep in the darkness, a spark starts to glow,A whisper of hope in the depths of my woe.The pieces I’ve lost, I’ll gather with care,From ashes I’ll rise, through the smoke-filled air.
Rising from black, I’m finding my way,Lost in the echoes, but learning to stay.The weight of the world, it’s still pressing down,But I’m breaking free, I won’t drown.
Fading from black, the light’s coming in,A fragile beginning where hope can begin.The darkness retreats, though it lingers behind,Fading from black, I’m reclaiming my mind.
