[Verse 1] Fifty-seven winters carved into my name, Scars like old companions, I don’t hide the pain. Fought the dark with needles, wires, and prayer, Woke to find I’m still breathing, still here. The woman I once held, still holds the light, But time rewrote the vows in a different fight. She stands with quiet storms behind her eyes, Even grace can wear a thin disguise. [Pre-Chorus] We lost so many voices we once sang along, Pages torn from every favorite song… [Chorus] Hold on to the echoes we still carry, In every tear, in every soul we bury. Love survives in fractured frames, Even when the names have changed. We are more than just what's slipped away, We’re still writing the rest of our days. So don’t let go, don’t fade too fast— These moments are the ones that last. [Verse 2] Met someone in the light of a virtual screen, She knew my truth through the in-between. Since ‘09, she’s been a voice in the storm, A place I go where love feels warm. And once, back in school, I felt that spark— Now decades later, she still lights the dark. Even TikTok shows me I’m not alone, Every like, a hand that says come home. [Pre-Chorus] We wear the years like worn-out leather, But broken souls can stand together. [Chorus] Hold on to the echoes we still carry, In every tear, in every soul we bury. Love survives in fractured frames, Even when the names have changed. We are more than just what's slipped away, We’re still writing the rest of our days. So don’t let go, don’t fade too fast— These moments are the ones that last. [Bridge] (instrumental swell into full rock build) Heroes fade, and legends die, But the fire we lit still burns in the sky. We’re the heartbeat in the silence now, Still standing, still somehow... [Final Chorus / Outro] Hold on to the echoes we still carry, Whispers in the dark that make us ready. To face the dawn, to rise again, To find the love inside the end. We are not gone—we remain... In every memory, every name.
