Midnight Echoes

The rain taps soft on my windowpane

A lonesome tune from a world in pain

Shadows dance where the light once stayed

I’m just a man in the bed I made

Oh the midnight echoes they call my name

Through the whiskey haze and the burning flame

A heart that’s broken sings just the same

Oh the midnight echoes they call my name

I walk these streets where the ghosts reside

Every step feels like a wounded stride

The neon hum’s got a mournful tone

In this city’s soul I’m not alone

Oh the midnight echoes they call my name

Through the whiskey haze and the burning flame

A heart that’s broken sings just the same

Oh the midnight echoes they call my name

The moon hangs low like it knows my plight

A silver tear in the velvet night

I reach for stars that I’ll never hold

Their light feels warm but the truth is cold

The dawn will break like it always does

But it won’t heal what the darkness was

So I’ll sing my blues till the night is gone

Till the echo fades and I’m left alone
