Shadow Echo

Soft rain echoes through the hollow air,

Gently whispering, a love laid bare.

Silent tears fall like midnight rain,

Echoes of a love once held, now named.

We built our world on fragile dreams,

Held the night in whispered schemes.

Thought forever was ours to keep,

But darkness crept too deep to leap.

Now I stand here, shattered, scarred,

Hoping you'll hear my heart's regard.

Lost in shadows, longing for your light,

Craving your return, through the endless night.

Come back to me, I need your flame,

Without you, nothing is the same.

Scared to live in this lonely maze,

Wishing for our love to find its ways.

The ocean swells, a storm inside,

Rising fury I can't hide.

Breaking free from silent pain,

Ready now to fight the rain.

(Heavy, syncopated riffs)

Crushing pain, a fiery storm,

A new life rising from the norm.

Voices roar, a desperate plea,

Hoping love's reborn in me.

Given all I’ve got, emptiness remains

Was it all for nought, a cruel game?

Come back to me, I need your flame,

Without you, nothing is the same.

Scared to live in this lonely maze,

Wishing for our love to find its ways.

I can’t go on with this anymore,

But I can’t give up on us

Heal my heart, breathe into it a cure

Tell me that this isn’t it,

Everything we’ve gone through,

All of our lives and all of this shit.

(Extended piano solo)

Soft keys echo once again,

Fading into gentle rain,

A whisper of what used to be,

An echo of eternity.

Oooh

Your echo,

Haunting me.
