Shattered Dreams

Woke up this morning to an empty bed

Silence so loud it hurts my head

Echoes of love now faded away

Memories haunt me day by day

Your laughter once filled this empty room

Now it's shadows and the creeping gloom

Pictures turned to ghosts on the wall

Who would've guessed we'd take this fall

Tears are the wounds that never mend

Love's lost

It's easier to pretend

Broken heart with a shattered seam

Living life like it’s a bad dream

Promises whispered under moon's light

Faded like stars swallowed by night

Holding on to what we let slip

The taste of lonely on my lip

You said forever but meant goodbye

Left me with a question why

Heartstrings torn

Paper thin

Starting over seems a sin

Tears are the wounds that never mend

Love's lost

It's easier to pretend

Broken heart with a shattered seam

Living life like it’s a bad dream
