[Verse 1] The cold sad truth of days long ago Just a memory I can't let go Times I lost to the years gone by Still etched in my mind like a blade in the sky [Pre-Chorus] These thoughts burn on when the crowd moves past I carry the weight of a shadow cast [Chorus] Still etched in my mind still etched in my mind I walk through the ache still etched in my mind (etched in my mind) [Verse 2] Down these familiar streets of dread and rust I know every turn every lie I trust The windows look back with their broken grin And I hear my name like a sin on the wind [Pre-Chorus] These thoughts burn on when the night grows thin I hold what is gone and I let it in [Chorus] Still etched in my mind still etched in my mind I walk through the ache still etched in my mind (etched in my mind) [Bridge] If I could trade one fallen year I would buy one breath and keep you near But time took names and left these signs Now I wear the hurt like a line through my spine [Final Chorus] Still etched in my mind still etched in my mind I walk through the ache still etched in my mind (etched in my mind) Still etched in my mind still etched in my mind
