[Verse 1 Lead] I can only imagine What you must’ve been feeling, Ten year[s old so scared and alone... counting shadows on the ceiling. trapped by your thoughts loud but never heard thinking you were unloved but didn't say a word [Verse 1 Echo] Ticking time… slipping by… No one heard your quiet cry… [Verse 2 Lead] Crying there in silence, the days kept moving on, Wishing someone noticed How your light was dimming and now gone (you're gone). You were just a child ((10 years old) Trying hard to make it through, And the world should’ve slowed down Long enough to notice you [Pre-Chorus Whisper] You needed something we failed you You deserved everything we lost you [Chorus Lead] Such a tragedy it hurts my heart we cant unwind the clock , i am sorry How wrong you felt alone. If only we had answered, If only we had known. Maybe you’d be laughing, Maybe you’d be near, maybe if someone had noticed you would have conquered another year [Chorus Harmony] Ooh… time we can’t rewind…(rewind) Ooh… echoes left behind…(behind) [Verse 3 Lead] Now they'll walk through shadows of your screams things are never as bad as it seems we failed a chid, he will never see his teens this is not okay this is not okay MY Heart breaks for the child Who carried all that weight, A ten‑year‑old whose timeline Ended WE WERE far too late. [Bridge Lead] We weren’t there to guide you, We didn’t see the signs. A little boy fading out Between the days and lines. All we can do now Is speak your name with care, And hope every hurting child Finds someone truly there. [Bridge Whisper] You mattered… You still matter… [Final Chorus — Lead] I’m sorry that you felt unseen, Sorry you felt small. You deserved a softer world, You deserved it all. And I hope anyone hurting Hears me loud and clear, Here is my hand, please take if and hope that we make it let's survive another year. [Outro — Whisper] Time remembers you… We remember you… You’re here in the echoes… you are here in our hearts im so sorry we weren't there please know our negligence wasn't that we didn't care we failed to notice what your garden had grown what you held on your own and i hope you hear i would have been there if only i had known but i promise to nurture your garden and tend what is sown as if it ... were... my.... own...
