(Verse 1)
A hollow ache where your footsteps used to fall
Another day breaks, another long, empty hall
I searched the skyline for a flicker of light
But all I found was another sleepless night
The static hums on a broken telephone line
This silent world, a self-imposed design
Still waiting for a message, a whisper, a sound
On this barren, consecrated ground
(Pre-Chorus)
Yeah, the silence screams a symphony of doubt
Chasing after shadows, burning all the way out
Just a memory etched in faded moonlight
A broken compass spinning through the fading light
(Chorus)
And I’m here now, but my heart is miles away
Trapped in the memory of yesterday
All the words we never got to say
Echoing in the quiet of this new day
The ghosts of you are all that’s left for me
In this waking nightmare of what used to be
Just an echo of goodbye, a fading sound
On this empty, hollow ground
(Verse 2)
The seasons change, the world keeps turning fast
But I'm a prisoner to a moment from the past
I see your face in every stranger's glance
Another hopeless, agonizing dance
Did you ever find the peace you couldn't keep?
Was the promise that we made too hard and deep?
I try to build a bridge across the great divide
But I just keep drowning in the undertide
(Pre-Chorus)
Yeah, the silence screams a symphony of doubt
Chasing after shadows, burning all the way out
Just a memory etched in faded moonlight
A broken compass spinning through the fading light
(Chorus)
And I’m here now, but my heart is miles away
Trapped in the memory of yesterday
All the words we never got to say
Echoing in the quiet of this new day
The ghosts of you are all that’s left for me
In this waking nightmare of what used to be
Just an echo of goodbye, a fading sound
On this empty, hollow ground
(Bridge)
I don’t need you to come back, I just need to know why
Every waking hour is a lie
And all the stars are falling from the sky
I’m just asking for a simple reply
A single sign in the cold, black night
To tell me I’ll be alright
(Outro)
A fading sound...
On this empty ground…
Still searching for a sign…
Just to say you’re mine…
