[Intro] (Gentle Rhodes piano with ambient textures and swamp guitar) [Verse 1] (Glitter rock drums with fuzz guitar and vintage synth bass) Started with fragments of old conversations Pieces of songs we half-remembered Building something new from borrowed sounds That somehow perfectly surrendered [Verse 2] (Hammond organ with drum machine) Took the reverb from our childhood Mixed it with tomorrow's dream We built it from echoes of what was And what we thought life could mean [Chorus] (Pedal steel with layered harmonies and analog delay) We built it from echoes bouncing back From walls we couldn't see Taking what the past reflected And making it newly free Sometimes the best foundations Come from sounds that won't stay gone [Bridge] (Rhodes and analog synth with cascading delays) Layer upon layer of remembered music Creates the song we're singing now We built it from echoes proves That memory knows somehow [Instrumental section] (Swamp guitar solo with vocoder) [Verse 3] (Building intensity with analog delay guitar) Every word we've ever spoken Livs somewhere in the air We built it from echoes means we're never Really starting from nowhere [Final chorus] (Full harmonies with vintage effects) We built it from echoes of the voices That shaped us into who we are Taking what the world reflected And turning it into our star Sometimes the best foundations Are made from recycled sound [Outro] (French ambient and swamp guitar fade) Nothing truly starts from silence Every song has its prehistory We built it from echoes reminds us How we write our mystery
