This is my third song, “Shadows Linger,” from The Nightmare Throne Soundtrack! This one is a combination of dark ambient and electronic rock.

Lyrics:
[Verse]
Whispers crawl like spiders in the night
Shadows dance where there is no light
Breath is heavy
Air so thin
The walls are closing
They pull me in
[Prechorus]
A creak
A crack
A distant scream
Nothing here is what it seems
[Chorus]
Shadows linger
Shadows bite
Hiding secrets out of sight
Run or stay
The choice is none
The dark has spoken
It’s begun
[Verse 2]
Footsteps echo on a hollow floor
Every step leads to one more door
Metal groans
The fires thrum
The clock ticks loud
but time won’t come
[Prechorus]
The mirror shifts
It knows my name
This endless maze
A wicked game
[Chorus]
Shadows linger
Shadows bite
Hiding secrets out of sight
Run or stay
The choice is none
The dark has spoken
It’s begun
