Embers of Hope
[Verse 1] Golden hues fade into gray Footsteps echo far away Staring at the crimson sky Questions surface, drifting by [Pre-Chorus] Endless days now move so fast Hold on... tight... [Chorus] Shadows lengthen on the ground Whispers lost but now they're found Time reveals the hidden lines Youthful heartbeats trace designs Shadows lengthen, we begin to see [Verse 2] Leaves that fall and seasons change Faces unfamiliar, strange Mirrors show a different face Searching for our own true place [Pre-Chorus] The sun dips low, the light retreats We feel the pulse of life's heartbeat [Bridge] Questions we never thought to ask Emerge from underneath the mask The road ahead both dark and bright Guided by the fading light [Final Chorus] Shadows lengthen on the ground Echoes of a distant sound Embracing all that we can be Unveiling our identity As shadows lengthen, we begin to see [Outro] That twilight paints the world anew A canvas touched by every hue In the dusk, we find our voice At the crossroads, make our choice
