Silver Shells

[Intro]
[Verse]
The mist is thick
The rain is slick
On the old wood floor
I walk once more
Fog hides the light
In the dead of night
I feel you near
Like a ghost, my dear
[Pre-Chorus]
The carousel wails
A melody that fails
To bring back the years
Through saltwater tears
[Chorus]
Silver shells in the sand
Slipping right from my hand
We were gold, we were young
Now the song is unsung
Shimmering in the haze
Lost in the maze
[Post-Chorus]
Fading out in the rain
Drowning all of the pain
In the deep mist
We still exist
[Verse]
Glitch in the dark
A tiny bright spark
Your shadow on the wall
Before the great fall
Muted bass lines
And broken signs
Where the water shines
In tangled vines
[Pre-Chorus]
The carousel wails
A melody that fails
To bring back the years
Through saltwater tears
[Chorus]
Silver shells in the sand
Slipping right from my hand
We were gold, we were young
Now the song is unsung
Shimmering in the haze
Lost in the maze
[Bridge]
Music box plays slow
Where did the magic go?
The salt stings my eyes
Under purple skies
We drifted apart
At the very start
[Breakdown]
Boardwalk is cold
Stories left untold
Half-buried dreams
Ripping at the seams
I find a memento
Down in the grotto
A shell from the day
You walked away
[Chorus]
Silver shells in the sand
Slipping right from my hand
We were gold, we were young
Now the song is unsung
Shimmering in the haze
Lost in the maze
[Outro]
