Shadows of Syd

[Verse 1]
In the haze of morning dreams
He painted worlds unseen
Lost between the lonely beams
And rivers painted green
[Verse 2]
The walls they whispered tales untold
Of a heart that never grows old
A mind in which the stars unfold
In a dance of colors bold
[Chorus]
Wonder lost in cosmic rain
Madness met with joy and pain
Shadows spin around his brain
In a world not bound by chain
[Verse 3]
Guitar strings that cried his soul
In chords that made him whole
Whimsy took its heavy toll
Yet brilliance lit the darkest hole
[Bridge]
In a mirror cracked by time
Lies a face still in its prime
Memories in silent rhyme
Timeless treasures caught in crime
[Verse 4]
Candles flicker in the night
A beacon to his transient light
As if a dream took sudden flight
In a sky both dark and bright
