“Echoes in the Dark”

Full Song Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
(G, Em, C, D)
G Em C D
In the silence, under the star,
G Em C D
There’s a voice, it’s calling from afar.
G Em C D
Can you hear it? It’s in the dark,
G Em C D
An echo of a memory, leaving a mark.

[Chorus]
(Am, C, G, D)
Am C G D
Echoes in the dark, we’re losing our spark,
Am C G D
In a world that’s constantly changing.
Am C G D
But we’ll keep on fighting, we’ll keep igniting,
Am C G D
The flames that keep our hearts raging.

[Verse 2]
(G, Em, C, D)
G Em C D
Through the chaos, through the night,
G Em C D
We’re looking for an answer, a guiding light.
G Em C D
And the echoes, they’re getting loud,
G Em C D
We’re far from the madding crowd.

[Chorus]
(Am, C, G, D)
Am C G D
Echoes in the dark, we’re creating our own arc,
Am C G D
In a world that’s constantly changing.
Am C G D
But we’ll keep on dreaming, we’ll keep scheming,
Am C G D
To keep our dreams from aging.
