Lyrics of Silhouette by Birdy
verse
There are shadows in my dreams
Storms that send me out to reach
And you just wait on my defeat
verse
So I built an army underneath
And now they got me while I sleep
And this worn-out frame will carry me
pre-chorus
Don't go holding your breath
You know that I'm not done yet
There's still a fight in me left
Don't go shouting out loud
That you're claiming the crown
I'm down but not out
chorus
And the bittersweet of every new defeat
Is I'm stronger than before
I may be on my knees, but I still believe
These broken wings will soar
chorus
Untie my silhouette, it's all that is left of a broken heart
Leave all of my regrets to sink like shipwrecks
Through oceans dark
verse
In the dust I wrote my name
And from the ruins, hopes were praised
'Cause all that's lost can be replaced in time
pre-chorus
Don't go holding your breath
You know that I'm not done yet
There's still a fight in me left
Don't go shouting out loud
That you're claiming the crown
I'm down but not out
chorus
And the bittersweet of every new defeat
Is I'm stronger than before
I may be on my knees, but I still believe
These broken wings will soar
chorus
Untie my silhouette, it's all that is left of a broken heart
Leave all of my regrets to sink like shipwrecks
Through oceans dark
chorus
Untie my silhouette, it's all that is left of a broken heart
Leave all of my regrets to sink like shipwrecks
Through oceans dark
