[Intro - distant pads, soft rain, slow DnB rhythm fades in]
3AM… phone glow…
No reply…
[Verse 1 - low, reflective]
I keep reading all the messages again
Like somehow they might change in the end
You said love, but it came with a price
Now I’m paying every night
I see your name but it don’t light up
Got me staring at a screen too much
Every silence getting louder now
And I don’t even know how
[Pre-Chorus - build, subtle bass]
You moved on, I stayed the same
Still calling out your name
[Chorus - emotional drop, spacious]
And these echoes don’t sleep
They just follow me
Every word you said
Still inside my head
Yeah these echoes don’t fade
Even when you’re away
I’m still stuck in you
Like there’s nothing I can do
[Verse 2 - deeper, more pain]
You said money over everything
Guess that includes what we could’ve been
I was building something real, something slow
You needed something I couldn’t show
You said you loved me, I believe that’s true
Just not enough to stay with you
Now I’m left with what we used to be
And what you took from me
[Pre-Chorus - stronger]
I should’ve walked, I should’ve known
But I hate being alone
[Chorus - fuller, layered]
And these echoes don’t sleep
They just follow me
Every word you said
Still inside my head
Yeah these echoes don’t fade
Even when you’re away
I’m still stuck in you
Like there’s nothing I can do
[Bridge - stripped, haunting]
If you called right now, I’d answer
Even knowing I’d go under
If you walked back through that door
I’d forget what happened before
Yeah I’d break all over again
Just to feel you for a second
[Final Chorus - peak, emotional]
’Cause these echoes don’t sleep
They’re a part of me
Every lie, every truth
Still feels like you
Yeah these echoes don’t fade
I’m just stuck in this place
If you ever come through
I’d still choose you
[Outro - fade, rain + pads]
3AM… still awake…
Still you…
