Velvet Shadows

Verse 1
In the dark, your silence pulls me near,
A dangerous calm, but I feel no fear.
The mask you wear, the secrets you keep,
You haunt my nights, you invade my sleep.

Pre-Chorus
Every breath is a tether, pulling me in,
A beautiful crime, I’ll confess to the sin.

Chorus
Velvet shadows, wrapping me tight,
Your touch is fire in the dead of night.
A kiss like a ghost, but it burns so true,
I’m losing myself every time I find you.
Velvet shadows, I can’t let go,
The closer I get, the less I know.

Verse 2
Your hands write stories on my skin,
Each mark a vow, where you’ve always been.
You vanish by morning, but I still ache,
For the fleeting forever we always fake.

Pre-Chorus
You’re poison and cure, the sweetest disguise,
A secret I crave, a hunger that lies.

Chorus
Velvet shadows, wrapping me tight,
Your touch is fire in the dead of night.
A kiss like a ghost, but it burns so true,
I’m losing myself every time I find you.
Velvet shadows, I can’t let go,
The closer I get, the less I know.

Bridge
You linger like smoke, a dangerous flame,
I’ll chase your shadow, whisper my name.
Intimate silence, a deadly art,
You kill the world but protect my heart.

Final Chorus
Velvet shadows, wrapping me tight,
Your touch is fire in the dead of night.
A kiss like a ghost, but it burns so true,
I’m lost forever when I’m finding you.
Velvet shadows, I can’t let go,
The closer I get, the less I know.

Outro
Your mask is a cage, but I hold the key…
And in velvet shadows, you’re everything to me.
