Veil of Faces

(Verse 1) In a room full of faces, I’m lost in the scene, Laughing with the crowd, but it’s all just a screen. Thoughts racing wildly, craving some peace, Wishing for a moment where the noise would cease. (Pre-Chorus 1) Every glance feels like a spotlight on me, Wondering if I’ll ever feel truly free. Searching for calm in this whirlwind of sound, Yearning for a space where my heart can be found. (Chorus 1) I’m standing on the sidelines, watching the show, Hiding my struggles, while the world doesn’t know. Caught in the whirlwind, but I’m finding my sway, Wearing a smile, navigating the gray. (Verse 2) Bright lights, music pumping, it’s hard to engage, Trapped in my thoughts, feeling locked in a cage. Every word feels heavy, like a weight in the air, Yearning for freedom, but the world doesn’t care. (Pre-Chorus 2) Every laugh echoes, but it’s hard to connect, Wishing for a moment to just reflect. Trying to find refuge in the noise all around, Hoping for a whisper where calm can be found. (Chorus 2) I’m standing on the sidelines, searching for light, Smiles on my face, but it’s not quite right. Caught in the chaos, still trying to play, Wearing a smile, as I find my way. (Bridge) Here I stand, caught in the flickering glow, Feeling the pressure in the ebb and the flow. Lost in the voices, I fade into gray, Longing for clarity, but it slips away. (Pre-Chorus 3) In this crowded moment, I’m feeling the strain, Surrounded by laughter, but it’s all in vain. With each passing moment, I’m trapped in this maze, Wishing for stillness in a world that won’t stay. (Chorus 3) I’m standing in the spotlight, lost in the crowd, Wearing a mask while the laughter grows loud. Caught in the moment, but I’m starting to see, Holding on to dreams, feeling a bit more free. (Outro) So here’s to the nights when I feel far away, Struggling in silence, letting colors decay. Searching for comfort in the echoes of night, Wondering if I’ll ever find peace in the light.
