Ghost in the City

[Intro] In the glow of neon, I drift through the crowd, unseen Whispers of glass and pavement are my quiet screen [Verse 1] I wear a shadow like a coat, tailored for the night Footsteps echo empty rooms where I pretend I’m light People pass, a river wide, I’m planets in a blur Freedom tastes of midnight air, I breathe a stranger’s stir [Pre-Chorus] If I speak, it trembles into smoke, disappears in light So I listen to the city sing in fractured, silver bite [Chorus] I’m the unseen, the tremor in the street’s soft hum Moving through crowds but never fully one Invisibility is a map I draw with sighs and grace Ghost in the city’s pulse, I find my secret space [Verse 2] Windows blink like eyes I never make contact with I trade a face for liberty, a whispered, chosen myth A stranger’s gaze can’t touch me here, I drift and roam There’s danger, there’s release—this quiet makes a home [Pre-Chorus] If I tether thoughts to noise, they vanish into rain So I collect the quiet moments, let the sounds fade away again [Chorus] I’m the unseen, the tremor in the street’s soft hum Moving through crowds but never fully one Invisibility is a map I draw with sighs and grace Ghost in the city’s pulse, I find my secret space [Bridge] Some nights I learn to listen to the loudest heartbeats And in the hush between them, I can finally breathe [Chorus] I’m the unseen, the tremor in the street’s soft hum Moving through crowds but never fully one Invisibility is a map I draw with sighs and grace Ghost in the city’s pulse, I find my secret space [Outro] If dawn returns my form to light, I’ll vanish into cheerless dawn But for now I glide, unseen and free, the quiet I’m sworn
