Tattooed Memories

[Intro]
Silence in the night, echoes of your name
Lost in the dark, I can't escape this pain

[Verse 1]
Tired of the games you played, they cut so deep
Broken pieces of my heart, I try to keep
Floating in memories, nothing feels the same
Every night, I whisper your name in vain

[Pre-Chorus]
Trying to forget, but you're tattooed on my mind
Seeking a way out, some peace I hope to find
Alcohol can't drown the tears I can't hide
Still thinking about you, no matter how I try

[Chorus]
I just want to be happy again
Forget the scars, forget the pain
It's been a while, but you're still there
Haunting every moment, everywhere

[Bridge]
Three a.m., wide awake, shadows dance
Remembering your touch, caught in a trance
All the kisses and caresses I can't erase
Held hostage by a love I can't replace

[Outro]
I'll heal someday, from this burning ache
Even if we part, for my own sake
I want to move on, leave the past behind
Find a new love, peace of mind

Emotional acoustic ballad, heartfelt vocals, gentle guitar and soft piano
