Title:
“Lost in Echoes”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
[G] I see a picture, [D] painted in the stars,
[Em] Reflections of who we [C] really are.
[G] Shadows dancing, [D] in the corners of my mind,
[Em] Looking for answers, [C] that we never find.

(Chorus)
[G] We are lost in echoes, [D] chasing the past,
[Em] Living in memories, [C] that never last.
[G] Driven by dreams, [D] that’s torn at the seams,
[Em] We are lost in echoes, [C] lost in dreams.

(Verse 2)
[G] Broken promises, [D] scattered on the floor,
[Em] Searching for a love, [C] that is no more.
[G] Running in circles, [D] haunted by the night,
[Em] Lost in the echoes, [C] of our fading light.

(Repeat chorus x2)

Modest Fork is not just a band for me; it’s my sanctuary. Their music resonates deeply with my experiences, making me feel understood and less alone. The song “Lost in Echoes” especially strikes a chord within me. It perfectly encapsulates the feeling of being stuck in the past and longing for what once was. Ollie’s soulful vocals combined with Zach’s guitar, Nate’s bass, and Will’s drums create a musical experience that is truly unparalleled. The raw emotion and sincerity in their music are what make Modest Fork my absolute favorite band.
