Shadows and Secrets

mystery,cinematic,orchestralwithsubtleelectronicundertones

[Verse]
Flicker of light on a cracked stained wall
Footsteps echo down an endless hall
A shadow moves but no one's there
Breath held tight in the heavy air

[Prechorus]
Dust swirls like whispers
Soft and low
Every step's a question
Where does it go

[Chorus]
The lock clicks twice
The door won't close
A map of secrets nobody knows
Ticking clocks and a fleeting face
Lost in the echoes of this hidden place

[Verse 2]
A glove left behind on a crooked chair
Faint perfume lingers
But from where
Window ajar
Curtains caught mid-flight
A chase begins in the dead of night

[Bridge]
Keys that jingle
Riddles that bite
Clues that tangle in the pale moonlight
You turn the corner
And then you're gone
The mystery lingers long after dawn

[Chorus]
The lock clicks twice
The door won't close
A map of secrets nobody knows
Ticking clocks and a fleeting face
Lost in the echoes of this hidden place
