Lyrics

Verse 1
Found a note I wrote in static, faded ink recalls the panic
Streetlights blink in broken rhythm, can't decide if I should listen
Raindrops tap in secret code, memories in overflow
Asking if I’m one of many, or just lost inside the echo

Chorus
And the shadows in the subtext keep on talking through the night
They’re whispering the questions I keep trying not to fight
Pocket full of doubts, I still carry them inside
I'll learn to read between the lines before I lose my mind

Verse 2
Coffee stains on crumpled sketches, I draw maps to where my head is
Cautious words and careful edges, emptiness behind the hedges
Chasing calm, I run in circles, find the cracks where hope still tiptoes
Tried to bury all my monsters but they blossom in the shadows

Chorus
And the shadows in the subtext keep on talking through the night
They’re whispering the questions I keep trying not to fight
Pocket full of doubts, I still carry them inside
I'll learn to read between the lines before I lose my mind

Bridge
Let the silence trace my footprints until daylight burns the lies
Maybe meaning lives in spaces that our heavy hearts disguise

Chorus
And the shadows in the subtext keep on talking through the night
They’re whispering the questions I keep trying not to fight
Pocket full of doubts, I still carry them inside
I’ll keep reading every line until my soul can find the light
