Moonlit Masquerade

Some things just fade away,
And that’s okay, that’s okay.
We loved so deep, but now we say,
Goodnight, goodnight, it's okay.
The night is quiet, but my heart still aches,
We built this love, but sometimes it breaks.
I hold the memories, soft in my hands,
Like fading footprints in the sand.
Some things just fade away,
And that’s okay, that’s okay.
We held on tight, but now we see,
Some things just weren’t meant to be.
I’ll whisper your name, though you’re not here,
I’ll sing you to sleep, wipe every tear.
Goodbye’s a song that’s hard to sing,
But in the end, it’s everything.
Some things just fade away,
And that’s okay, that’s okay.
We loved so deep, but now we say,
Goodnight, goodnight, it’s okay.
So rest now, love, in the quiet skies,
Some things fade, but they never die.
I’ll keep you close, no need to roam,
Goodnight, goodnight, you’re always home.

[Intro] Ouais, faut pas lâcher, frère. J’ai pas l’temps d’attendre, j’fais ça pour nous. [Couplet 1] J’ai grandi dans l’ombre, mais j’suis pas resté là, Pas d'grâce, juste l’envie d’faire ma place, moi, t'sais ça. Pas de rêve facile, juste des poings serrés, La rue m’a appris à jamais baisser la tête, c’est vrai. T’as les rêves plein la tête, mais ça coûte de l’temps, Faut pas trembler, faut tout donner, tout l’temps. J'ai traversé les tempêtes, le vent m’a giflé, Mais j’me suis pas laissé faire, j’ai rien oublié. [Refrain] Faut pas lâcher, faut foncer, même quand ça fait mal, Les rêves tombent, mais j'les relève, frère, normal. Tant qu’on respire, faut pousser jusqu’au bout, J’irai chercher mon avenir même si c’est flou. Faut pas lâcher, faut foncer, même quand ça fait mal, Les rêves tombent, mais j'les relève, frère, normal. Tant qu’on respire, faut pousser jusqu’au bout, J’irai chercher mon avenir, moi, même sans atout. [Couplet 2] J'ai vu des faiblesses, mais j'ai fait face, La rue m’a forgé, j’ai pas eu d'place pour l'place. Les années passent, mais j’ai pas changé, Toujours le même, à l’attaque, à me faire respecter. J’ai charbonné, la sueur sur le front, J’ai pris des risques, mais l’fric n’a jamais été mon son. J’ai fait des erreurs, mais j'ai appris à grandir, J’ai pas d’temps pour pleurer, faut juste repartir. [Refrain] Faut pas lâcher, faut foncer, même quand ça fait mal, Les rêves tombent, mais j'les relève, frère, normal. Tant qu’on respire, faut pousser jusqu’au bout, J’irai chercher mon avenir même si c’est flou. Faut pas lâcher, faut foncer, même quand ça fait mal, Les rêves tombent, mais j'les relève, frère, normal. Tant qu’on respire, faut pousser jusqu’au bout, J’irai chercher mon avenir, moi, même sans atout. [Pont] Rappelle-toi, la vie c’est pas un film, T’as pas le droit d’dormir, faut qu’tu prennes le rythme. On m’a dit que j’arriverai jamais, que j’ferai que tomber, Mais j’suis encore là, même quand le monde veut m’détester. Les blessures guérissent, les cicatrices restent, Mais faut pas lâcher, faut qu'tu mettes le reste. [Couplet 3] Pas question d’baisser la tête, j’ai bossé pour mon succès, Loin des faux rêves, j'ai tracé mon chemin, ouais, j’le sais. T’as vu ma vie ? Pas de magie, que du boulot, C’est pas facile, mais tu sais, moi j’ai pas le dos. Les faux amis, j’les laisse derrière moi, Faut avancer, faut grimper, faut pas faire d’compromis. J’ai tout donné pour pas finir dans l’ombre, Mais j’vais y arriver, frère, faut qu'ça explose, faut que ça tombe. [Refrain] Faut pas lâcher, faut foncer, même quand ça fait mal, Les rêves tombent, mais j'les relève, frère, normal. Tant qu’on respire, faut pousser jusqu’au bout, J’irai chercher mon avenir même si c’est flou. Faut pas lâcher, faut foncer, même quand ça fait mal, Les rêves tombent, mais j'les relève, frère, normal. Tant qu’on respire, faut pousser jusqu’au bout, J’irai chercher mon avenir, moi, même sans atout. [Outro] Faut pas lâcher... Faut foncer. C’est m

[Intro] Oh, I come from a land where the rivers run deep, Where the temples touch the sky. Where the monsoon winds dance, and the peacocks prance, Where legends will never die. [Chorus] When the sitar's tune Fills the air by the moon, And the stars in the heavens shine bright, Come along, take a ride, On a dream through the tide, To another mystic night. [Verse] Mystic nights, Like Vedic days, Where shadows and light Weave magic in flight, In the most wondrous ways. Mystic nights, 'Neath sapphire skies, A heart lost in fate May open the gate To where destiny lies.

(Yeah... yeah...) I wish I could forget you... but I can't. (Verse 1 - 16s) Lately, I’ve been stuck inside my head, Replayin’ all the words you never said. Tried to move on, but I still see your face, Everywhere I go, it's like you left a trace. (Pre-Chorus - 16s) I still hear your voice in the dead of the night, Still feel your touch when I turn off the lights. I wish I could hate you, I wish I could lie, But every time I try… (Chorus - 16s) I can't forget you, even though I need to, Burnin’ all the pictures, but I still see you. Tired of the memories, wish they’d fade away, But they never do, no, they always stay. (Hook - 16s) Why does your name still burn in my chest? Why do I miss you when I know it’s for the best? Why does my heart keep callin’ you back? Wish I could erase you just like that... (Beat Break - 8s - soft humming or vocal chops here) (Verse 2 - 16s) I left your hoodie on my bedroom floor, Thought about tossin’ it but can't for sure. Your perfume lingers, it’s stuck in my mind, Like all the broken "I love you’s" we left behind. (Pre-Chorus - 16s) I still hear your voice in the dead of the night, Still feel your touch when I turn off the lights. I wish I could hate you, I wish I could lie, But every time I try… (Chorus - 16s - Slight variation for emotion) I can't forget you, even though I need to, Deleted all your texts, but I still read through. Tired of the memories, wish they’d fade away, But they never do, no, they always stay. (Hook - 16s - More emotional delivery this time) Why does your name still burn in my chest? Why do I miss you when I know it’s for the best? Why does my heart keep callin’ you back? Wish I could erase you just like that... (Bridge - 16s - Slow, reflective vibe here) Maybe one day, I'll wake up brand new, Maybe one day, I won’t think about you. But tonight, I’m still lost in the pain, Tryna let go, but it all feels the same. (Outro - 8s - Fading vocals, soft ad-libs) I can't forget you... I can't forget you... (Wish I could...)

तेरी आँखों में जो आँसू हैं, वो मेरे किए का अंजाम है, तेरा दिल जो टूटा है, उसकी हर धड़कन मेरा इल्ज़ाम है। मैं खुद से भी नज़रे चुरा रहा हूँ, तू जो रूठी है, सज़ा मैं पा रहा हूँ। (Chorus - Apology & Plea) मुझे माफ कर दो, एक मौका और दो, तुम बिन अधूरा हूँ, मुझे फिर से जोड़ दो। तेरे बिना ये दुनिया अधूरी लगे, जो गलती हुई, अब ना होगी कसम से। (Verse 2 - Regret & Promise) दिल मेरा भी टूटा है, जब तुझको रोते देखा, खुद पे गुस्सा आता है, क्यों किया ऐसा धोखा? अब हर साँस मेरी, तेरा नाम ले, तू जो ना माने, तो मैं क्या करूँ? (Bridge - Emotional Cry) तू चाहे सज़ा दे, पर साथ ना छोड़, तेरा प्यार ही मेरी आख़िरी डोर। मैं बदल गया हूँ, अब वो गलती ना होगी, बस इक बार, तू फिर से हाँ बोल! (Outro - Hope) अगर प्यार अब भी ज़िंदा है, तो मुझे अपनाले, तेरे बिना, मेरा दिल अब कहीं और ना लगे। मुझे माफ कर दो, बस लौट आओ, इस अधूरे दिल को फिर से पूरा बनाओ।

**"Can't Stop Loving You"** *(Verse 1)* I see you smile, it's like the world’s so right But every time I reach, you slip away from sight You’re walking past, my heart beats in disguise I wanna hold you close, but I can’t even try *(Pre-Chorus)* You’re his and I’m just a dream, Caught in this heartache, it's tearing at the seams, You don’t see me like I see you, But I keep holding on, what am I supposed to do? *(Chorus)* I'm sick of love, but I can’t stop loving you, No matter how hard I try, I just can’t break through, You’re with her, and I’m stuck in my lonely place, But my heart beats for you, I can’t erase your face I’m sick of love, but I can’t stop loving you. *(Verse 2)* I watch you laugh, but my tears fall unseen Wish I could be the one to make you feel like a queen I hear your name, and my heart just aches I know it’s over, but I can’t let it break *(Pre-Chorus)* You’re his and I’m just a dream, Caught in this heartache, it's tearing at the seams, You don’t see me like I see you, But I keep holding on, what am I supposed to do? *(Chorus)* I'm sick of love, but I can’t stop loving you, No matter how hard I try, I just can’t break through, You’re with her, and I’m stuck in my lonely place, But my heart beats for you, I can’t erase your face I’m sick of love, but I can’t stop loving you. *(Bridge)* I’ve tried to move on, but you’re always on my mind Every little thing reminds me of what I can’t find I’m sick of love, but it keeps pulling me in, Loving you feels like it’s a never-ending sin *(Chorus)* I'm sick of love, but I can’t stop loving you, No matter how hard I try, I just can’t break through, You’re with her, and I’m stuck in my lonely place, But my heart beats for you, I can’t erase your face I’m sick of love, but I can’t stop loving you. *(Outro)* I’m sick of love, but I can’t stop loving you... I can’t stop loving you... I can't stop loving you...

[Verse] Every step feels like a minefield Hearts I can't afford to break In a world that's always moving I'm the letters you can't take [Verse 2] Pressure weighs like heavy rainclouds Promises I strain to keep In my dreams I'm always falling From a cliff that's way too steep [Chorus] Don't wanna let you down now Got this fear inside my head Worry I'll be just a letdown Scary thoughts under my bed [Verse 3] Mirror's showing someone empty Fading in a room of light Mask I wear feels like a burden Cloaking shadows in the night [Bridge] Every word becomes a puzzle Fitting pieces out of place Scared of failing all the thistles I can't seem to reach a space [Chorus] Don't wanna let you down now Got this fear inside my head Worry I'll be just a letdown Scary thoughts under my bed

[Verse] Blank stares in the crowd won't let me breathe Whispers of doubt haunting my sleep Every step I take feels just half of a leap Afraid of the promises I can't keep [Verse 2] I hear the echoes of what they say Heavy expectations in my way Guilt wrapped around me like chain and clay Running from myself every single day [Chorus] I’m scared of letting you down Lost in a shadow it’s dragging me down Confused in this mess of a town Your hopes are a weight that makes me drown [Verse 3] Pictures on the wall are staring back Every achievement feels like an attack In a maze of dreams and heartache tracks Running circles but I can’t stay on the track [Bridge] I wear a mask but the cracks show through Trying to be somebody brand new Caught between what’s wrong and true Afraid of what I still have to prove [Chorus] I’m scared of letting you down Lost in a shadow it’s dragging me down Confused in this mess of a town Your hopes are a weight that makes me drown
