Echoes

A quick bullet: a tough one to dodge

and no one ever does

It cuts fast and deep (keeps you from sleep)

And you just have to let it bleed

I know the pain,

it's all to familiar

If I could sing

words to help, you know I would

 

And they would end the pain

But you will have to let this make you stronger

It's difficult to overcome

 

The name of a ghost

still dancing on our tongues

So bittersweet (these memories)

I wish they could have taken me

And you will struggle through tough times

And destroy all your fears

Don’t let this win over you

 

Soon you will end the pain

And you will say that it did make you stronger

This is how you overcome

 

(Voices fade away) And we’ve all heard it sung

(They fade away, as the memory) You really don't know what you got till it's gone

(The memory remains) And then you want it back so much

Nobody ever warned you…

 

Breathe in, take in it deep

Cross your heart, it's yours for you to keep

Wishful? I guess I never was

I am looking up now, death can change us

 

Breathe in, take in it deep (And I will keep, pieces of you alive in me)

Cross your heart, it's yours for you to keep (Your spirit carries on.)

Wishful? I guess I never was (And I will keep, pieces of you alive in me)

I am looking up now, death can change us (Your spirit carries on.)

 

I will, stand alone

I will, learn from this, I will

I will, mourn the loss and I will be stronger

Done
