Fading Echoes

(It’s 3 AM again. I can still hear you... Just a ghost in the static. The summer heat is heavy on my skin Walking past the places where we’ve been The neon sign is flickering and dim Just like the chances that I’m swimming in I reach my hand out to the empty seat Hoping that our fingertips could meet But all I grasp is humidity and air A painful reminder that you aren't there Time moves on, dragging me along But my heart is stuck playing the same old song The waves are crashing on a distant shore We don’t talk about "us" anymore (No, we don't talk anymore...) Now I’m chasing Fading Echoes in the night Shadows dancing in the pale moonlight I call your name but it dissolves in rain A beautiful melody inside the pain It’s just an Echo... (Log Drum: Doom... Doom-pa...) Of a love we used to know... It’s just an Echo... (Log Drum: Doom... Doom-pa...) Letting you go... Scroll through the photos on a cracked display Colors of July turning into gray Your laughter ringing in my memory A loop that plays for all eternity I tried to drown it in the city noise But silence screams with a louder voice C Minor blues running through my veins Washing away the dust but not the stains Time moves on, dragging me along But my heart is stuck playing the same old song The leaves are turning, falling to the ground And I am lost in the lost-and-found (Yeah, I'm lost without you...) Now I’m chasing Fading Echoes in the night Shadows dancing in the pale moonlight I call your name but it dissolves in rain A beautiful melody inside the pain It’s just an Echo... (Log Drum: Doom... Doom-pa...) Of a love we used to know... It’s just an Echo... (Log Drum: Doom... Doom-pa...) Letting you go... Why does the memory last longer than the moment? Why is the silence the loudest component? I’m screaming underwater... Can you hear me? (Can you hear me...?) Just Fading Echoes
