Empty Echoes

[Guitar intro] (Verse 1) You took my heart, and you ran away, Left me standing in the pouring rain,(Ooh!) Promises made, now they're all in vain, Thought you'd be the cure to my pain. (Pre-Chorus) But you left me shattered, broken in two, Chasing shadows of a love I knew,(Ooh!) Now I'm picking up the pieces, finding truth, Realizing all the lies you drew.,(Ooh!) (Chorus) I'm just an echo of what we used to be, A faded memory of you and me, You were my light, but now I see, I'm stronger without you, finally free. [guitar solo] (Verse 2) All those nights, crying in the dark, You lit the match, then you struck the spark, Now I see, I was just a mark, In your game, leaving me stark. (Pre-Chorus) But you left me shattered, broken in two, Chasing shadows of a love I knew, Now I'm picking up the pieces, finding truth, Realizing all the lies you drew. (Chorus) I'm just an echo of what we used to be, A faded memory of you and me, You were my light, but now I see, I'm stronger without you, finally free. finding truth, Realizing all the lies you drew. (Chorus) I'm just an echo of what we used to be, A faded memory of you and me, You were my light, but now I see, I'm stronger without you, finally free. [piano solo] (Bridge) You thought I'd fall apart, lose my way, But I'm rising up, day by day, Your ghost is fading, can't make me stay, I’m reclaiming life, come what may. (Chorus) I'm just an echo of what we used to be, A faded memory of you and me, You were my light, but now I see, I'm stronger without you, finally free. (Outro) I'm just an echo, but I'm finding me, No more shadows, I’m breaking free, You were my light, now I believe, I’m better without you, now I breathe. (Outro) I'm just an echo, but I'm finding me, No more shadows, I’m breaking free, You were my light, now I believe, I’m better without you, now I breathe.
