Haunted Memories

[Verse] Morning coffee bitter taste Sunrise it burns my face Try to forget the foolish fall Memory it keeps its call [Verse 2] Midday shadows chase my steps Past it gnaws no rest no rest Fumbled words a twisted grin Crowd laughs hard deep within [Chorus] Why can't I erase the stain Painful echo whispers name Running fast but standing still Haunted memories they kill [Verse 3] Afternoon fades bleeding sky Broken dreams and I wonder why Frame the pictures burn the past Ghosts of shame they never last [Bridge] Close my eyes but see it clear Scream out loud no one hears Try to drown it but it floats Embarrassment a heavy coat [Verse 4] Evening whispers cruel and cold Story of a fool retold Every laugh a dagger sharp Memory it plays its harp
