Echoes

I know you're trying to
Hold onto something that has never belonged to you
It only echoes in your mind
The past will follow you
Stealing each moment of the story
Takes away the truth
Leaves only echoes, only lies

Memories were left behind
And promises you failed to find
In desperation, desperation
That you could never hide

And even when you feel that all is lost
The heartache will not last forever
And when you feel like all your hope is gone
The heartbreak is not yours to carry alone

Another day passes
Another page in the chapter of moving on
From the pain of the past
The burdens lifted
All the years will be returned
All that was taken is no longer haunting you

And even when you feel that all is lost
The heartache will not last forever
And when you feel like all your hope is gone
The heartbreak is not yours to carry alone

Memories have turned to echoes
Promises you failed to find
All along, you hear the desperation calling out
(Memories have turned to echoes)
(Promises you failed to find)
(All along, you hear the desperation calling out)

Memories have turned to echoes
Promises you failed to find
All along, you hear the desperation calling out

And even when you feel that all is lost
The heartache will not last forever
And when you feel like all your hope is gone
The heartbreak is not yours to carry alone

(Carry alone, carry alone, carry alone)
(Memories were left behind)
(And promises you failed to find)
In desperation, desperation
That you could never hide
