This Forgotten Home

[Intro] [Solo piano, melancholic and haunting tone] [Verse 1] Creaking floorboards beneath my feet Dust-covered memories, incomplete Peeling wallpaper, faded dreams This old house holds more than it seems [Chorus] (What stories do these walls hold?) Echoes of laughter, echoes of tears (What lives were lived and lost in here?) Fragments of time, frozen for years In this forgotten home [Verse 2] Stacks of papers reach to the sky Trinkets and treasures catch my eye Family portraits, smiles so bright Now shrouded in shadows of night [Chorus] (What stories do these walls hold?) Echoes of laughter, echoes of tears (What lives were lived and lost in here?) Fragments of time, frozen for years In this forgotten home [Bridge] A life collected, piece by piece A family's love, now ceased How did it end? Where did they go? These relics of lives I'll never know (Never know, never know) [Verse 3] My tears fall on a dusty frame A mother's face without a name Once cherished items, now left behind The weight of loss floods my mind [Chorus] (What stories do these walls hold?) Echoes of laughter, echoes of tears (What lives were lived and lost in here?) Fragments of time, frozen for years In this forgotten home [Outro] As I leave this house of memories I carry with me its mysteries (What stories do these walls hold?) In this forgotten home
