Whispers in the Pines
Verse 1:
There's a chill in the air when the sun goes down,
The wind starts to howl through this lonesome town.
The old folks say, "Don't stray too far,"
'Cause the woods hold secrets and the night leaves scars.
But I couldn't help it, curiosity's curse,
I wandered deep, though I knew it'd get worse.
Chorus:
Whispers in the pines, calling out my name,
Echoes of the lost in an endless game.
Shadows dance beneath the pale moonlight,
Those whispers in the pines, they'll keep me up all night.
Can't you hear 'em cry? Can't you feel 'em near?
The ghosts of the woods are always here.
Verse 2:
I heard a voice like a long-lost friend,
But the chill in my spine said this ain't the end.
I turned around, saw nothing in sight,
Just the rustle of leaves and the dead of night.
They say old lovers haunt these trees,
But I swear it's more than just a breeze.
Chorus:
Whispers in the pines, calling out my name,
Echoes of the lost in an endless game.
Shadows dance beneath the pale moonlight,
Those whispers in the pines, they'll keep me up all night.
Can't you hear 'em cry? Can't you feel 'em near?
The ghosts of the woods are always here.
Bridge:
I tried to run, but the roots held tight,
Trapped in the woods, no end in sight.
The voices grow louder, they pull me in,
A ghost among ghosts where it all begins.
Chorus:
Whispers in the pines, calling out my name,
Echoes of the lost in an endless game.
Shadows dance beneath the pale moonlight,
Those whispers in the pines, they'll keep me up all night.
Can't you hear 'em cry? Can't you feel 'em near?
The ghosts of the woods are always here.
Outro:
I hear those whispers every night,
Now I'm part of their endless fight.
In the pines, in the dark, I'll stay,
Just another voice lost along the way.
