Echo

Lyrics

[VERSE 1] You sat across from me with thunderstorms hidden in your eyes and I carried whole oceans in my throat but we spoke in careful weather small talk half smiles coffee growing cold between us [CHORUS] The things we never said became ghosts in the room pressing fingerprints against the windows like rain begging to come inside I wanted to tell you how your name sounded like poetry inside my chest steady as the rhythm of my heart and soft as the moonlight but fear is a locked garden and pride grows thorns around the gate so the words stayed buried like seeds beneath winter soil. waiting for a season that never came [VERSE 2] Yet some loves survive only inside unfinished sentences I'm sitting alone in a dim habitation counting ghosts instead of stars Did we simply romanticize the fire because we survived the ashes? I still hear your silence sometimes mine speaks in shattered metaphors a train station with no departures a violin underwater a lighthouse ashamed of its own light We were [BRIDGE] If I could rewind the static, turn the tide, Pull the echoes back where they began, Would we still be strangers in a crowded room? Or would the silence break, and we’d stand again? [CHORUS] The things we never said became ghosts in the room pressing fingerprints against the windows like rain begging to come inside I wanted to tell you how your name sounded like poetry inside my chest steady as the rhythm of my heart and soft as the moonlight but fear is a locked garden and pride grows thorns around the gate so the words stayed buried like seeds beneath winter soil. waiting for a season that never came [HOOK] We’re ghosts on a page, inked but unread, Whispering through the cracks of a cracked ceiling. Will you ever read my silent line? [OUTRO] The coffee’s cold, the night stretches long, I close the window, let the rain fall silent. In the quiet, I hear your name like a lullaby, And the ghosts drift away with the dawn.
