[Intro]
Shadows fall when I look back, I see the cracks in the mask
Caught between the truth and regret, I lost what we had at last
[Verse 1]
I pushed too hard, crossed the line, blinded by my own desire
Started the fire, heated past, now all I do is watch it expire
They walked away, not by choice, but from the weight I placed on their shoulders
A silent scream, a broken dream, I was the colder, the bolder
[Pre-Chorus]
If I could turn back, rewrite the past, mend what I broke
Would you forgive the tears I shed, the words I never spoke?
[Chorus]
I was the reason, I was the storm that tore us apart
Built the walls high and wide, lost the love in my own scars
Not your betrayal, just my shadow, cast the blame on me
I’m sorry for the pain, I wasn’t who you wanted me to be
[Verse 2]
Actions spoke louder than my apologies, yet I can’t undo the damage
Caught in the mirror’s cruel reflection, I see the guardian I abandoned
You loved me, but my fears and doubts made the choices that you had to face
Now I stand in the ruins of us, trapped in this remorseful place
[Pre-Chorus]
If I could undo the dark, I’d keep you close, I swear
But now I only have these tears, and the echo of despair
[Chorus]
I was the reason, I was the storm that tore us apart
Built the walls high and wide, lost the love in my own scars
Not your betrayal, just my shadow, cast the blame on me
I’m sorry for the pain, I wasn’t who you wanted me to be
[Bridge]
Maybe someday you’ll see, I was fighting my own fears
And all I want is a chance to wipe away these tears
To heal the broken pieces, rebuild what I destroyed
Learn from my mistake, find the love I once employed
[Outro]
So here I stand, full of regret, hoping you might understand
That it was me, not you, who lost what we had, I hold my hand
And pray that time can heal the wounds I made, and you’ll forgive
For I was the shadow at your side, trying just to live
[Intro]
Whispers of the past, echo in my mind
Silent shadows, I can't leave behind
[Verse 1]
Walking down the empty streets of memory
Footsteps fading, lost in the reverie
Choices I made, like scars on my soul
Wishing I could go back and make it whole
[Pre-Chorus]
Every word unsaid, every tear I hide
Haunted by the love I let slide
Can’t undo the hourglass’s flow
Regrets keep crawling, never letting go
[Chorus]
Regrets, they linger in the night
Fading dreams, slipping from my sight
Heart is heavy, burdened by the past
Hope it’s not too late to change at last
[Verse 2]
Faces fade, but memories remain
Lessons learned through the pain and rain
Midnight confessions, whispered sins
Searching for forgiveness within
[Pre-Chorus]
Every choice I wish I could reverse
In the silence, feel the curse
Time’s river runs, but I’m still here
Carrying my doubts and my fears
[Chorus]
Regrets, they linger in the night
Fading dreams, slipping from my sight
Heart is heavy, burdened by the past
Hope it’s not too late to change at last
[Bridge]
Maybe tomorrow’s another chance
To dance again, to find romance
But tonight I dwell in this sorrow
Hoping for a brighter tomorrow
[Outro]
Whispers of the past, calling me
Reminding me who I used to be
Still searching for a way to mend
In the echoes, I find no end
