Echoes Lyrics

I could've let it build up, I could've been bitter

But the choice to take the high road was highly better

The choice to block my ears and keep my mouth closed

Has saved me time and tears, has left you alone

I can't see in your mind, I can't find your intentions

But I should've heard the lies, indiscretions

Guess this is life and this is how these things go

Gotta face it and smile, but sometimes when I'm alone

I still hear the echoes

I still feel your ghost

And though I've set you free

You can't just let me be

I still feel the cold

Can't warm the chill in my bones

You're far away from me

But anger cuts deep

And I still bleed

I went on, I went silent, scared of my own tongue

Cause of the damage you claimed my words had done

You broke my image down, stood on the wreckage of me

Cried help the victim, but you were guilty

I hope my words get back to you, and I hope they stay in the air

They suffocate what is left, they burn their place in your head

Can't shake them, nothing will take them away

Cause that's what you did to me

I still hear the echoes

I still feel your ghost

And though I've set you free

You can't just let me be

I still feel the cold

Can't warm the chill in my bones

You're far away from me

But anger cuts deep

And I still bleed

I've known betrayal, but this is worse

Cause it's my fault, I can't say I hurt

You got built back up, I apologise but it isn't enough

You cried wolf and everyone heard

But they believed your every word

So innocent

Who would've known any different?

I still hear the echoes

I still feel your ghost

And though I've set you free

You can't just let me be

I still feel the cold

Can't warm the chill in my bones

You're far away from me

But anger cuts deep

And I still bleed

Can you hear me? Can you hear me?

I still bleed
