“Empty Echoes”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Am C G D
In this room of empty echoes, is where my heart begins,
Am C G D
A silent scream, a dream it seems, is caught within the wind.
Am C G D
Mirror’s stare, a cold despair, my reflection’s only friend,
Am C G D
Your ghost still dances in my head, a waltz that never ends.
(Chorus)
Am C G D
Empty echoes, whispering tales, of a love that’s turned to rust,
Am C G D
In a room where shadows pale, under layers of ancient dust.
Am C G D
Empty echoes, they convey, all the words we never spoke,
Am C G D
In this silence, I decay, as I’m chocked by your ghostly cloak.
(Verse 2)
Am C G D
In this maze of empty echoes, I’m lost without a trace,
Am C G D
Every corner bleeds your name, in this cold and empty space.
Am C G D
The reflection laughs, my broken path, is all it’s left to trace,
Am C G D
In these empty echoes, I find a haunted embrace.
(Repeat Chorus)
