Echoes of a Broken Home

Silent nights, broken dreams, echoes in my mind

Lost in the middle, trying to find my peace this time

Growing up in the shadows, with choices I can't make

Seeing smiles on other faces, wondering 'bout my heartbreak

Dad's trying from afar, miles don't mean a thing

Hope and heartbreak, tangled in the song I sing

Wish I knew what it felt like, to have a family whole

Carved in the memories, haunting every soul

Can’t replace what’s gone, no matter how I try

Lonely in the crowd, asking the questions why

Hold on to what’s gone, pain I can't mend

Mothers and fathers, never meant to end

Heart torn in two, yet I still stand

Learning to heal, holding my little man’s hand

Time keeps moving, but the scars stay deep

Learning love in shadows, promises I couldn’t keep

Never forget the love, though it slipped away

Stronger in my sorrow, a new dawn to face each day

Your parents can never be replaced, scars that stay

Holding onto hope, for a brighter day

In my heart, I know, all I can do is try

For my son, I’ll be the hope, I’ll be the sky
