### Shattered Echo (His Side) *(Soft, breathy vocals over minimal piano and distant synth hums. Slow tempo, like a heartbeat fading in the rain. Imagine a male voice—raw, vulnerable, like a hushed confession—with echoes layering in the chorus.)* **[Verse 1]** I trace your shadow on the cold tile floor Fingers numb, but it cuts even more You said forever, but forever's a lie Now I'm just waiting for the goodbye The clock ticks slow, like it's mocking me Every second's a memory I can't unsee **[Pre-Chorus]** And I hold my breath in the dark Hoping you'll spark, but you're worlds apart Your perfume lingers like smoke in the air Choking me soft, pulling me there **[Chorus]** We're tragic, yeah, we're breaking slow Love like a bruise that won't let go You carved your name into my skin Now it's bleeding out, where do I begin? Faded polaroids in a drawer I can't close Heart's a hotel, and you're the ghost Tragic, oh, we're lost in the glow Of what we were, but I'll never know **[Verse 2]** I scroll through nights we used to own Your whisper replays in a hollow tone Pillow's wet from tears I don't cry out loud But inside, it's a scream in the crowd You moved on like it was nothing at all Left me piecing shards from the fall **[Pre-Chorus]** And I bite my tongue till it tastes like rust Whispering trust, but it's turning to dust Your eyes in my head, they follow me still A quiet kill, bending my will **[Chorus]** We're tragic, yeah, we're breaking slow Love like a bruise that won't let go You carved your name into my skin Now it's bleeding out, where do I begin? Faded polaroids in a drawer I can't close Heart's a hotel, and you're the ghost Tragic, oh, we're lost in the glow Of what we were, but I'll never know **[Bridge]** *(Vocals drop to a fragile hush, with subtle strings swelling like a storm building.)* What if I screamed and you finally heard? Turned back the hands, rewrote every word? But we're just echoes in an empty room Dancing to doom, under the moon I let you slip like sand through my fists Now the silence twists, and nothing exists **[Outro Chorus]** *(Fading echoes, layered harmonies dissolving into reverb.)* We're tragic... breaking slow Love like a bruise... won't let go (You carved... into my skin) Bleeding out... where do I begin? Faded... can't close Heart's a hotel... you're the ghost Tragic... lost in the glow What we were... I'll never... know *(Ends on a single piano note, lingering like a sigh.)* Flipped the lens—now it's his quiet unraveling, chasing her shadow. Hits different, right?
