Shiny Days

[Verse 1] How should I know your true love’s face, From all the others in this crowded place? He wore a cockle hat and staff so plain, How could I recognize him yet again? [Verse 2] Gone and gone, not to return, The flicker fades, the candles burn. In shadows deep, where whispers play, Lingered love has slipped away. [Chorus] Gone and gone again, my dear, Disappeared into the misty air. Love once strong now fades to grey, Gone and gone again, it’s just the way. [Verse 3] Hearts once entwined now drift apart, A silent ache within the heart. No longer here, no longer near, Just tender memories, crystal clear. [Bridge] Oft I wonder, oft I sigh, Where does love go when it bids goodbye? In each quiet breath, in each soft refrain, Echoes of him, gone and gone again. [Verse 4] Time may heal, yet it doesn't mend, The lingering loss of a lover and friend. In dreams, I'm haunted, night and day, Gone and gone again, he'd always say.

[Verse] Walking down the street just minding my own Her eyes like diamonds through the dark they've shone She grins like a wild thing ready to pounce My heart skips a beat flips then it bounces [Chorus] You're the buzz in my brain a sweet refrain So crazy it's driving me insane Tangled up and tripping on this vibe Laughing as we tumble in the tide [Verse 2] He’s got this swagger like a cat on the prowl Makes me wanna jump and let out a howl He jokes like a goofball makes me wanna cry But something in his smile just makes me try [Chorus] You're the buzz in my brain a sweet refrain So crazy it's driving me insane Tangled up and tripping on this vibe Laughing as we tumble in the tide [Bridge] We’ve got this kooky crazy kind of dance Falling spinning taking rowdy chance With you every moment's such a blast Riding high let's make this feeling last [Verse 3] Together in the madness we’ll align Creating chaos that feels so divine The world can keep on turning as it will We’ve got this loony love and it’s our thrill

I’m tired of this underpaid life, Chasing dreams I can’t ignite. A job that keeps me locked in place, Caught in a loop I can’t erase. Head down, I’m just clockin’ in, Same old story, it never begins. Dreamin’ of freedom, a life far away, But I’m chained to the ground , day after day. In this room, I’m losing my fire, No spark left to take me higher. Minimum wage—it’s all I know, Tired of crawling, moving too slow. I see the stars with their easy rise, But I’m stuck here, chasing the skies. Caught in a loop, just spinning 'round, Fighting for a life I haven’t found. No motivation to keep me alive, I’m waiting for a reason to survive. How do I move when I’m out of gas? Why does greed keep holding me back? Why can’t we all just live in peace? I’m not asking much—just the basic needs. Every day’s the same old way, Running in circles, I’m losing my say. Scrolling through pages, it’s hard to see, Why some have it all and there’s none for me. It’s just a race to see who can take, Instead of a way to see who can save. I want a purpose, not to be a slave, Let me live my life, let me pave my way. I’m stuck here, moving at my slow speed, While the world keeps running on greed. Giving my all to those who don’t need, Why can’t you be you, and I’ll be me? But I guess the truth is plain to see, You take more—there’s no harmony. I see the stars with their easy rise, But I’m stuck here, chasing the skies. Caught in a loop, just spinning 'round, Fighting for a life I haven’t found. No motivation to keep me alive, I’m waiting for a reason to survive. Trapped and tired, I need escape, Somewhere with a livable wage. I see success on every page, Small dreamers rising, living their stage. What’s the secret? I want to learn, The key to a life that I can earn. Where do I start? Where do I go? I’m burnt out, but I still know— It’s just a race to see who can take, Instead of a way to see who can save. I want a purpose, not to be a slave, Let me live my life, let me pave my way. What should I do? I’m done with dreaming, Sick of watching while others are scheming. It’s time to break free, time to rise, To find my rhythm and reclaim the skies. Let me have purpose, not just survive, I want to live, not just stay alive.

[Verse] It's close to midnight shadows start to creep Beneath the moon a chill runs way too deep A twisted figure hides behind the trees You feel the terror tighten every breeze [Verse 2] Your breath it hitches heart beats out of line A ghastly whisper sends a frozen sign You turn to run but feet they won't obey Lost in the night your fears won't go away [Chorus] Midnight horror you can't deny Eyes wide open but can't see why Shadow puppet plays its ghastly part Feel the twist and scream with all your heart [Bridge] In the air a wailing distant cry Silent screams no tears left to dry Face the night where monsters love to dwell Paralyzed in their cursed haunting spell [Verse 3] Cobwebs tangle twist around your mind Every corner darkness tries to find Haunted echoes dance inside your ear Whispered secrets only you can hear [Chorus] Midnight horror you can't deny Eyes wide open but can't see why Shadow puppet plays its ghastly part Feel the twist and scream with all your heart
