4. Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Underneath the starlit skies,
In the quiet of the night.
Memories they come and go,
like fractured echoes in the snow.
(Chorus)
Fractured echoes, whispers of our past,
Imprints of moments, we wished to last.
In the silence, can you hear the call?
Of fractured echoes, the loudest of them all.
(Verse 2)
Beneath the veil of the morning mist,
We shared our first secret, shared our first kiss.
Now all that remains, are shadows and smoke,
And fractured echoes, of the promises we broke.
(Chorus)
Fractured echoes, whispers in the breeze,
Hidden in the rustle, of the autumn leaves.
In the silence, can you hear the call?
Of fractured echoes, the last to fall.
(Bridge)
In the fragments of our love, in the corners of our mind,
We stumble upon the echoes, of the love we left behind.
Can you hear it in the silence, can you see it in the hall?
The fractured echoes, the ghosts of our fall.
(Chorus)
Fractured echoes, whispers in the night,
The remnants of our love, hidden from sight.
In the silence, if you listen with your all,
You’ll hear the fractured echoes, echoing our fall.
