Lyrics
Verse 1]
Almost everything I knew was a facade,
The smiles and laughter, just a clever charade.
Mom and Dad, painted love in a frame,
But behind all that beauty, there’s only shame.
Cousins and friends, glaring daggers with their eyes,
In a world full of whispers, I learned how to disguise.
A puppet on strings, bound by their lies,
I long for the truth, through the hurt and the cries.
[Chorus]
What’s real anymore, when the love fades away?
I’m left picking up pieces of dreams gone astray.
I learned to stand tall when they pushed me aside,
But I miss all the warmth, with nobody to confide.
In a heart of a wanderer, I search day and night,
For something that’s real, under the moonlight.
[Verse 2]
Now I’m grown, I’ve tasted the bitter and sweet,
Building my walls, from the ground to my feet.
I learned to embrace the silence I keep,
But oh, how I wish for a moment of deep.
No agenda attached, just a soul to relate,
But shadows keep creeping, they seal my fate.
Is there someone out there who’ll give me a chance?
To show me what love is, to lead me to dance?
[Chorus]
What’s real anymore, when the love fades away?
I’m left picking up pieces of dreams gone astray.
I learned to stand tall when they pushed me aside,
But I miss all the warmth, with nobody to confide.
In a heart of a wanderer, I search day and night,
For something that’s real, under the moonlight.
[Bridge]
I long for a spirit that sings with a heart,
To tear down the walls, to be real from the start.
With each whispered secret, hidden in the dark,
I search for the spark, to ignite my own heart.
Could I find a lover who knows my despair?
Who’ll show me the light, a love that is rare?
[Verse 3]
Just once I want truth in the love that I find,
To know that I’m cherished, to feel intertwined.
But with each passing day, I wear this disguise,
And wonder if hope is just another cruel lie.
I’m writing these verses, pouring my soul,
Hoping that one day, I might feel whole.
[Outro]
So here’s to the dreamers, holding on tight,
Searching for meaning in the heart of the night.
We’ll break all these chains, let the truth take its course,
In this world full of lies, we'll find our remorse.
Open up my heart and let the real love in,
Together we'll dance and learn how to begin.
