[Verse 1]
I trusted you but did you ever care
I gave you my heart
I believed in us
and yet you let it fall
You smiled while I broke
you walked away while I waited
I kept your name in my mouth
like it could bring you back
I read the room wrong
I read your face wrong
I built a home from your maybe
then slept on the floor
[Chorus]
It’s the echo
It’s the echo
all that’s left is the echo
It’s the echo
It’s the echo
I hear you where you’re not
[Verse 2]
I saw the signs
I just kept giving you grace
You took my soft side
and called it a place to stay
I was all in
you were already halfway gone
I held the door open
you left me holding on
Now the silence got teeth
and it bites when I’m alone
Every empty reply
keeps ringing through my bones
[Chorus]
It’s the echo
It’s the echo
all that’s left is the echo
It’s the echo
It’s the echo
I hear you where you’re not
[Bridge]
I don’t need the same old lie
I don’t need your pretty goodbye
If love was real, it wouldn’t feel
like dust in my hands tonight
Say it plain
say it straight
was I just a place to wait?
I’m not healing in your shadow
I’m done living in the wake
[Chorus]
It’s the echo
It’s the echo
all that’s left is the echo
It’s the echo
It’s the echo
I hear you where you’re not
