Testo di 'When Shadows Whisper Goodbye' di Mann's Best Friend

Underneath the willow's weeping boughs we'd lay
Whispers in the wind, your silent screams convey
I reached for your shadow, tried to be your light
Ignorant to the endless battles you'd fight

I stood by your tempest, through the howling gale
Not seeing you were slipping, growing ever frail

When it rains in my heart, it pours out my eyes
For the friend who wore a mask of cheerful disguise
You danced with your demons in the pale Moon's glow
I was there for the waltz, but the finale I didn't know

We shared dreams like secrets, in the night's embrace
Hoping the dawn would your darkness erase
But the spectre of sorrow was a thief in the night
Stealing pieces of you, out of reach, out of sight

I was the watchman at the fortress of your despair
Yet the enemy was within, a ghost I couldn't snare

When it rains in my heart, it pours out my eyes
For the soul that succumbed to the silent cries
In the garden of memories where your laughter roamed
Now stands a monument to the pain you owned

In the theater of my mind, I replay our time
A narrative of a friendship in its prime
But the curtain fell before the act was done
Leaving me in the audience, the grieving one

The echoes of our laughter haunt me like a ghost
In the hollow of my being, where I miss you most
I was the lighthouse in your maelstrom sea
But the waves took you under, far away from me

When it rains in my heart, it's a thundering pain
For the friend who left, under the weight of the chain
Your spirit was a comet, streaking through the night
Burning so fiercely, till it vanished from sight

And when the sky weeps, I feel you near
In the rain's rhythm, I hear your tears
We were warriors in a world so grey
But when shadows whispered, you slipped away
