[Verse 1]
A twin knows they're special, Hunter,
Everybody sees it plain,
Two hearts beating different rhythms,
But running through the selfsame vein.
Two boys laughing in the sunlight,
Two shadows stretching through the years,
Then one cruel moment stole forever
What no one thought could disappear.
[Pre-Chorus]
Now every road feels half as crowded,
Every memory cuts twice as deep,
And every promise that you carried
Is yours alone to try and keep.
[Chorus]
How do you wake up in the morning
When half of you is gone?
How do you face the world that's turning
When your other half moved on?
Every time you look into the mirror
You see his face staring back at you,
And there's just an echo where he used to be,
Where half your soul once shone through.
You both knew you were made special,
But only one of you made it through.
[Verse 2]
People say that time brings healing,
Like a river smooths a stone,
But they don't know the empty silence
Of becoming half alone.
He knew every fear you carried,
Every dream you dared not say,
The one person you trusted fully
Was torn from this world away.
[Pre-Chorus]
Now the laughter sounds more distant,
Like a song heard through the rain,
And every step toward tomorrow
Feels like learning life again.
[Chorus]
How do you wake up in the morning
When half of you is gone?
How do you face the world that's turning
When your other half moved on?
Every time you look into the mirror
You see his face staring back at you,
And there's just an echo where he used to be,
Where half your soul once shone through.
You both knew you were made special,
But only one of you made it through.
[Bridge]
But maybe he's still walking with you
In the choices that you make,
In every smile that bears his memory,
In every step you have the strength to take.
The bond that made you brothers
Wasn't buried in the ground,
Love leaves an echo in the silence,
And some echoes never stop making a sound.
[Final Chorus]
So you wake up in the morning
Though half of you is gone,
And you face another sunrise,
And somehow you carry on.
When you look into the mirror
You see his face and yours there too,
And there's still an echo where he used to be,
A part of him shining through.
You both knew you were made special,
And his story still lives in you.
