Silent Seep

[Verse 1]
Neon bleeds slow on the damp concrete, two AM.
Shadows stretch long where forgotten futures swam.
Scent of wet dust, exhaust haze in the breath,
Every rusted rebar whispers silent death.
Hear the city's quiet sigh, a heavy, tired sound,
Where resilience waits on fractured ground.

[Chorus]
Silent seep, through the cracked pavement, deep.
Promises whispered, that the hard stone will keep.
Beneath the high-rises, where the dark secrets sleep,
A melancholic rhythm, the city's quiet weep.

[Verse 2]
Generations etched in the corroded steel frames,
Silent cracks widen, echoing forgotten names.
A low hum vibrates, from the alleys untold,
A quiet dignity, stories grown old.
The ghost of ambition, trapped in the choking drains,
Left to decompose, where nothing remains.

[Bridge]
This city breathes slow, a hollowed-out grace,
Bittersweet hum, in a time-worn space.
Underneath the surface, a pulse starts to form,
A quiet defiance, weathering the storm.

[Outro]
Damp concrete sighs, as the quiet drips fall.
Just the silence and me, against the rising wall.
