[Verse 1]
Through the jagged peaks and the whispering pines
A lone hero wanders, tracing fate’s twisted lines
A flicker dances just beyond the path ahead
A shadowed companion with words unsaid
[Chorus]
Lantern of shadows, lead me through the night
Guide me with riddles, through fire and fright
You hide your story, yet I follow still
A spark in the darkness, bending to my will
[Verse 2]
They laugh without sound, a ghost behind my shoulder
Hints and half-truths make the journey colder
A cryptic grin, a wink in the mist
Every choice I make seems tied to their twist
[Chorus]
Lantern of shadows, lead me through the night
Guide me with riddles, through fire and fright
You hide your story, yet I follow still
A spark in the darkness, bending to my will
[Verse 3]
At the edge of the chasm, I falter and pause
Their voice cuts through the gloom without a cause
“Fear is the lantern, courage the flame”
I step forward, knowing nothing is the same
[Final Chorus]
Lantern of shadows, lead me through the night
Guide me with riddles, through fire and fright
You hide your story, yet I follow still
A spark in the darkness, bending to my will
