Lost in the Crowd

[Verse] Paper mask, cracked facade in the play Lights bright, shadows cast, she fades away Heavy heart burdened, whispers paint the night She smiles wide, hides tears out of sight [Verse 2] Echoed hallways, her steps fall silent Demons draped in silk, every day a battle violent Lonely in the crowd, invisible threads bind Eyes of emerald sorrow, haunted by her mind [Chorus] Smile stitched crooked, sewn with her cries Bandage over wounds, truth dressed in lies Outcast shadows, dancing in her head Nobody sees, she’s lost in her dread [Verse 3] Mirror reflection, glances met with disdain Self-worth shattered, fragments of pain Shoulder the blame, feels heavy, misunderstood Just wanna be seen, more than just hood [Bridge] Bridge to nowhere, path full of stones Misfit melody, sung in hushed tones Burden to the world, or so she believes Yet hope still flickers, she quietly grieves [Chorus] Smile stitched crooked, sewn with her cries Bandage over wounds, truth dressed in lies Outcast shadows, dancing in her head Nobody sees, she’s lost in her dread
