Covastral - Shadows Within Lyrics

Beneath the surface in the shadows of the mind
Whispers turn to echoes the truths we dare not find
Strings tremble in the dark as fears begin to wind

In the dim light of doubt where my thoughts betray
You were the certainty that slipped away
Now in this silence where shadows play
I dance alone swaying in disarray

Caught in the tempest of my own heart's sea
Waves of fervent emotion crashing over me
In this storm of feelings tell me can we ever be free?
Or are we destined to drift forever lost at sea?

With every heartbeat a discordant tune
Like a night without stars a day without noon
Your absence is a chasm wide and deep
In the chambers of my heart where shadows seep

I reach for the light but grasp only air
In this ballet of despair a solo affair
Twirling in the twilight where love once bloomed
Now only the cold touch of solitude looms

Caught in the tempest of my own heart's sea
Waves of fervent emotion crashing over me
In this storm of feelings tell me can we ever be free?
Or are we destined to drift forever lost at sea?

Through the whispering darkness I still seek your flame
A beacon in the night calling out my name
Yet with each step forward the light seems to wane
In this dance with shadows love is a wistful refrain

As the final note fades into quiet despair
I'm left with the echoes of our unfinished affair
In the stillness of night where all but shadows depart
The dance of our memories continues in my heart

Caught in the tempest of my own heart's sea
Waves of fervent emotion crashing over me
In this storm of feelings tell me can we ever be free?
Or are we destined to drift forever lost at sea?
