Shadows We Become by Cordelia Cross Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Tonight, the echoes call from a hidden place,

A refuge carved in a nameless space.

The fleeting whispers carry what we cannot face,

As shadows rise to dance in the fragile grace.

[Pre-Chorus]

Pieces of who we were lie scattered on the floor,

Reflections in the glass of a life we can't restore.

We move through the silence, a delicate charade,

Caught between the roles we’ve played.

[Chorus]

We fade like whispers, we blur into one,

They say it’s dangerous, the shadows we become.

We hide in the void where no light can see,

In the vanishing game, will we ever be free?

The shadows we become.

[Verse 2]

When the storm returns, bending all we’ve known,

The pieces rearrange, but the cracks have grown.

We’re fragments of stories that were never our own,

Searching for the solace in the seeds we’ve sown.

[Pre-Chorus]

Masks we wear, our faces undefined,

Erased in the haze of an endless bind.

We vanish together, a silent design,

Losing ourselves to the confines of time.

[Chorus]

We fade like whispers, we blur into one,

They say it’s dangerous, the shadows we become.

We hide in the void where no light can see,

In the vanishing game, will we ever be free?

The shadows we become.

[Bridge]

Shifting forms, a fleeting trace,

A memory lost in an empty space.

We cover the truth, conceal the pain,

Bound to the cycle of the vanishing game.

[Final Chorus]

We fade like whispers, we blur into one,

They say it’s dangerous, the shadows we become.

We hide in the void where no light can see,

In the vanishing game, will we ever be free?

The shadows we become.
