[Verse 1]
Keys crack, sound fractured, a melody bleeding
Heart stuck in rewind, it’s truth I’m needing
Echoes in the hall, where the light stopped feeding
Staring at the wall, but my mind keeps speeding

Ashes on the counter, memories burnt slow
Tried to pour my pain, but the bottle won’t flow
Words feel heavy, every syllable froze
Lost in the rhythm where the dark wind blows

[Chorus]
Broken keys, broken dreams, where do I go?
Every note off-tune, still I follow the flow
Pieces of me scattered, shadows in tow
Broken keys, broken dreams, all I know

[Verse 2]
Fingers on the piano, but the song won’t start
Notes misalign, like the cracks in my heart
Ghosts of my past play their sinister part
Haunting my steps, pulling me apart

Streetlights flicker, conversations with the moon
Trying to find the dawn, but it’s always too soon
The night whispers secrets, a mournful tune
A soul out of rhythm, caught in the monsoon

[Bridge]
Rain taps the glass, a drummer offbeat
Reflections in puddles where my demons meet
Tried to stitch the wounds, but they won’t repeat
Life’s a looped chord, but the harmony’s fleet
