Yeah…
It’s quiet now…
But the echoes won’t fade…
[Hook]
[Melodic, auto-tuned, emotional — this is the money shot]
Echoes in my head, they keep calling your name
Drowning in the memories, feeling all this pain
You walked out the door, left me here in the rain
Now I’m fading away… yeah, I’m fading away
I gave you my heart, you just threw it away
Now these scars on my soul, they won’t go away
I’m lost in the void where the light used to stay
Fading away… fading away…
[Verse 1]
[Rap-sing flow, raw and conversational]
Woke up in the dark, another night without you
Staring at these walls, don’t know what to do
We was supposed to last but forever came quick
One minute you’re here, next you’re gone like a flick
Of a switch in my mind, now it’s all black and white
No colors no more, just this endless fight
With the thoughts in my brain saying “you ain’t enough”
Should’ve been better — man that shit gets rough
I pop another pill just to silence the noise
But it comes right back like it knows all my ploys
You were my peace in a world full of war
Now I’m fighting myself and I’m losing the score
Friends tell me move on but they don’t feel the ache
The way my chest tightens every time I awake
To the reality that you’re not coming back
Left me with questions and a heart under attack
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
[Slightly more intense, build the emotion]
Late nights I replay every word that you said
“Forever and always” — but those words are dead
Buried in the past with the love that we had
Now I’m left with the good times and all of the bad
I see your smile in the smoke when I light up
Tryna numb the pain but it just won’t let up
I’m a shell of myself walking through these days
Putting on a mask so the world don’t see the haze
In my eyes, in my soul, I’m just broken inside
Trying to heal but the wounds are too wide
You took a piece of me when you said goodbye
Now I’m searching for that piece underneath these lies
That I tell myself — “it’ll get better with time”
But time moves slow when you’re stuck in the grind
Of missing someone who don’t miss you the same
I’m just a player in this fucked up game
[Bridge]
[Raw, half-sung, vulnerable — strip the beat back]
If I could go back, would I change who I am?
Or would I still fall for that same damn scam?
You had me wide open, vulnerable and true
But in the end it was me who lost you…
No — lost myself trying to hold on to you
Now I gotta rebuild, gotta start something new
But these echoes… they follow me everywhere I go
Reminding me of the love that I’ll never know again…
[Outro]
[Layered vocals fading out, heavy reverb]
Fading away…
In the echoes…
Fading away…
Yeah…
(Ad-libs fading: “let it go… let it go…”)
