Echoes of a Broken Heart

Intro – ambient guitar swell, distant vocal echo)

Whoa oh…

Still hear you in the silence…

Still feel you in the dark…

(Verse 1)

Empty room and a restless soul

Trying to heal what I can’t control

Every wall got your shadow painted

Every memory feels contaminated

I keep reaching for what ain’t there

Breathing in your ghost like smoke-filled air

I smile outside but inside breaks

Every step forward still feels too late

(Pre-Chorus)

And the night keeps calling my name

Like a fire I can’t outrun

(Chorus – explosive)

These are the echoes of a broken heart

Still tearing through me in the dark

Every word, every touch, every goodbye

Still burns like fire I can’t deny

The echoes of a broken heart

Keep crashing through me like a spark

But somewhere deep beneath these scars

I still believe in who we are

(Verse 2)

There’s a photograph face down on the floor

I should let go but I hold on more

Every song on the radio bleeds

Turns old wounds into fresh memories

I’ve been trying to drown the pain

Driving midnight roads in the pouring rain

But your voice keeps cutting through

Like a haunting truth I can’t undo

(Pre-Chorus)

And the silence screams so loud

When the world finally slows down

(Chorus)

These are the echoes of a broken heart

Still tearing through me in the dark

Every word, every touch, every goodbye

Still burns like fire I can’t deny

The echoes of a broken heart

Keep crashing through me like a spark

But somewhere deep beneath these scars

I still believe in who we are

(Bridge – stripped down then building)

Maybe broken doesn’t mean done

Maybe healing’s just slowly begun

Maybe love leaves echoes behind

To remind us we were alive

So I’ll carry the pain and the light

Every wrong turn, every sleepless night

‘Cause even shattered hearts still beat

Still rise… still dream… still believe…

(Final Chorus – huge, emotional)

These are the echoes of a broken heart

The sound of falling worlds apart

But I won’t let the darkness win

I’ll find my way to love again

The echoes of a broken heart

May leave their mark and leave their scars

But every wound can let light through

And bring me back to something true

(Outro – fading guitar and echo)

Whoa oh…

Still hear you in the silence…

But I’m stronger than the dark now…

Yeah… I’m stronger than the dark…
