Lyrics
[Verse 1] I still see your shadow in the hallway light,
Faded Polaroids stuck between the pages of my mind.
You said forever was a word we’d never break,
But time’s a thief, and it took the words you’d never say.
The coffee stains on my old notebook,
Still smell like your perfume in the afternoon.
I trace the cracks in the ceiling,
Wondering if you’re tracing them too.
[Pre-Chorus] I swore I’d never call your name again,
But the silence hurts more than the noise we made.
I’m a ghost in the halls of our old home,
Just a whisper in the echoes of us.
[Chorus] Oh, we were fire, we were wild,
Two hearts beating like a drum in the night.
Now I’m just a whisper in the wind,
A love that’s lost but still pinned
To the walls where we used to shine.
Echoes of us, they call my name,
A love that’s gone but still remains.
I’ll dance in the ruins of what we had,
‘Cause even the broken can be glad.
[Verse 2] The playlist skips on the song we loved,
A cracked screen laughing at the words we sung.
You left your sweater in my car,
It still smells like the drive back from the stars.
I found a mixtape in my drawer,
Your voice still stuck in the chorus of “before.”
I hit play, and it’s like you’re here,
But the needle’s stuck on last year.
[Pre-Chorus] I swore I’d never call your name again,
But the silence hurts more than the noise we made.
I’m a ghost in the halls of our old home,
Just a whisper in the echoes of us.
Oh, we were fire, we were wild,
Two hearts beating like a drum in the night.
Now I’m just a whisper in the wind,
A love that’s lost but still pinned
To the walls where we used to shine.
Echoes of us, they call my name,
A love that’s gone but still remains.
I’ll dance in the ruins of what we had,
‘Cause even the broken can be glad.
(Whispered)
Maybe in another life,
We don’t say goodbye.
Maybe in another time,
The stars align.
But I’m still here, picking up the pieces,
Writing songs ‘bout our sweet releases.
And if you ever hear this melody,
Know I’m not the girl I used to be.
[Final Chorus] Oh, we were fire, we were wild,
Two hearts beating like a drum in the night.
Now I’m just a whisper in the wind,
A love that’s lost but still pinned
To the walls where we used to shine.
Echoes of us, they call my name,
A love that’s gone but still remains.
I’ll dance in the ruins of what we had,
‘Cause even the broken can be glad.
The echoes fade… but they’re never gone.
