[Verse 1]
Streetlight shadows paint the floor
Of a heart that’s not mine anymore
You said silence would heal the pain
But all I hear is echoes in the rain
I wear a smile like a disguise
But it’s tearing me apart inside
I chase a dream that lost its name
Still I run, still I stay the same
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
You pulled away like tide from shore
Now I don’t know what I’m living for
⸻
[Chorus]
Tell me it’s not too late to feel
That this life we live is real
I’m stuck in time, replaying scenes
Where we were more than in-between
I scream your name — it fades again
Like echoes in the rain

[Instrumental Guitar Solo - Electric guitar lifts into a soaring, melodic solo — think David Gilmour meets 80s tone — expressive, emotional, crying bends, shimmering delay, layered harmonics, slow-burning but powerful]
⸻
[Verse 2]
I trace your voice through empty halls
The pictures age but never fall
I thought I’d find you in the flame
But all that’s left is smoke and shame
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
I reach for truth in what we lost
But nothing real comes without a cost
⸻
[Chorus]
Tell me it’s not too late to feel
That this life we live is real
I’m stuck in time, replaying scenes
Where we were more than in-between
I scream your name — it fades again
Like echoes in the rain
⸻
[Bridge]
Maybe we were meant to break
To see how much the heart can take
But I’d still choose that storm again
Just to lose you once like then
⸻
[Final Chorus – stripped then full band]
Tell me it’s not too late to feel
That this pain means something real
I’m stuck in time, reliving dreams
That wash away in midnight streams
I scream your name — it fades again
Like echoes in the rain…
Like echoes in the rain…

[Outro – Instrumental Fade Guitar reprises the solo motif, fading gently into ambient chords, rain sounds, or analog synth textures.]
