It’s like I’m walking through a haunted house,
Memories echo, shadows whisper, can’t drown it out.
You left a crack in my heart, a fracture in the frame,
Tried to paint a picture of us, but it’s fading, just a name.
The laughter used to dance in the halls we shared,
Now it’s just a ghost haunting, whispers hanging in the air.
Every corner feels like a battle, I’m losing to the past,
You were my forever, but forever didn’t last.
(Pre-Chorus)
And I run from the ghosts that remind me of the fight,
Chasing after shadows, but they disappear at night.
I thought love was a promise, now it’s just a scar,
Every heartbeat echoes, yeah, I wear it like a mark.
(Chorus)
Tell me why, tell me why, I’m drowning in the pain,
Every tear that falls feels like a drop of rain.
I’m searching for the light, but all I find is black,
Heartbreak’s a chain and I'm tethered to the past.
So here I stand, shadows in the silence,
Struggling to breathe, caught up in the violence.
You were the fire, now I’m lost in the smoke,
Chasing after dreams that feel like a cruel joke.
(Verse 2)
Sitting at the edge, where the darkness starts to creep,
Counting every promise that you made—none to keep.
All the “forever’s” we carved on the walls,
Turning into echoes, just silent, empty calls.
Wish I could rewind to the days of pure bliss,
But now I’m just a wanderer, lost in what I miss.
Empty rooms filled with memories that sting,
Like a melody that fades right before the final ring.
(Pre-Chorus)
And I run from the feelings that remind me of the hurt,
Trying to erase every line in the dirt.
Thought we had a tapestry, stitched with golden thread,
Now it’s frayed at the edges, and it’s all turned to red.
(Chorus)
Tell me why, tell me why, I’m drowning in the pain,
Every tear that falls feels like a drop of rain.
I’m searching for the light, but all I find is black,
Heartbreak’s a chain and I'm tethered to the past.
So here I stand, shadows in the silence,
Struggling to breathe, caught up in the violence.
You were the fire, now I’m lost in the smoke,
Chasing after dreams that feel like a cruel joke.
(Bridge)
Love was a battlefield, we lost to the night,
Now I’m just a soldier, fighting shadows in the light.
I’m piecing together the remnants of us,
But every time I touch them, it erupts into dust.
(Outro)
So tell me, is there healing in this pain that I’ve sown?
Or am I just a king without a castle of my own?
Shadows in the silence, they echo in my mind,
Each one a reminder of the love I left behind.
But I’ll keep walking through this haunted house of mine,
Searching for a way to leave the past behind.
