Myth of Peace

Lyrics: John L Music: John L Arranger: John L Neon hums in empty halls Memories pinned to broken walls Shadows falling where your light would always shine Fighting feelings that I swore were never mine Curtains sway but nothing moves Time forgets what I can’ t lose Every silence builds a weight I cannot lift Even peace began to feel like just a myth Run now Keep it steady Lost in the rhythm, it keeps on chasing me No way Never let it go Caught in the fire, it burns but doesn’ t show Fade out Echo tonight Trapped in the shadows, I can’ t escape the fight Stay still Follow the sign Even the silence pretends that you are mine Streetlights flicker dreams decay Clock ticks thoughts drift away Shadows dancing where the sunlight used to be Fighting ghosts that only I can ever see Walls crack under distant sound Footsteps fade without a ground Every promise left a scar across my chest Even love became a trial I couldn’ t test
