City of Shadows

City of Shadows


(Verse 1)

Westminster Bridge, a silhouette,

Against a bruised and fading sunset.

The Thames, a ribbon, dark and deep,

Whispering secrets it will keep.

A chill wind stirs, a mournful sigh,

As shadows lengthen, and secrets lie.


(Chorus)

City of shadows, where mysteries play,

Beneath the watchful London Eye's cold ray.

From St. Paul's dome to the Shard's sharp gleam,

Lost in the labyrinth, a half-remembered dream.

London Bridge echoes, a silent plea,

Lost in the darkness, the city watches me.


(Verse 2)

The cobbled streets, a maze of night,

Each shadowed alley holds a hidden fright.

The whispers follow, soft and low,

Where secrets bloom and shadows grow.

I walk alone, with hurried pace,

Haunted by time, and by this place.


(Chorus)

City of shadows, where mysteries play,

Beneath the watchful London Eye's cold ray.

From St. Paul's dome to the Shard's sharp gleam,

Lost in the labyrinth, a half-remembered dream.

London Bridge echoes, a silent plea,

Lost in the darkness, the city watches me.


(Bridge)

The river's current pulls me down,

Into the depths of this haunted town.

A fleeting glimpse, a shadowed face,

Lost in this ever-changing space.


(Chorus)

City of shadows, where mysteries play,

Beneath the watchful London Eye's cold ray.

From St. Paul's dome to the Shard's sharp gleam,

Lost in the labyrinth, a half-remembered dream.

London Bridge echoes, a silent plea,

Lost in the darkness, the city watches me.


(Outro)

The city sleeps, but secrets wake,

In this London night, for goodness sake.

The shadows dance, a haunting show,

In the city's heart, where mysteries grow.
