In the shadowed alley where the lost hearts go,
I wander through the memories, like whispers in the glow.
Smoky air surrounds me, thick with dreams turned gray,
Tired eyes keep searching for the light of a brighter day.
Neon signs are flickering, casting shadows on the ground,
Echoes of a love song, but the melody's drowned.
Each step feels like a heartbeat, a rhythm out of place,
In this velvet sorrow, I'm just chasing empty space.
Sweet laughter haunts the corners, but it fades with the night,
I’m clinging to the silence, 'cause it feels so right.
A lost refrain is playing, a tune that once felt whole,
Now it lingers in the darkness, singing to my soul.
The moon hangs low and heavy, like a tear that's hard to hide,
I pour my heart to shadows, they’re my only guide.
Time is just an illusion, wrapped in a smoky dream,
But in this shadowed alley, I find strength in the scream.
So, I’ll walk these crooked memories, let the blues unwind,
Though the velvet sorrow’s heavy, there's a light I’ll find.
With every note that lingers, I’ll reclaim what I’ve lost,
In the shadowed alley blues, I’ll pay my heart’s cost.
And when the dawn breaks softly, chasing shadows away,
I’ll rise with new horizons, ready for another day.
Blues
Shadowed alley, smoky air, tired eyes, lost refrain, velvet sorrow
