Shattered Memories

Beneath the pale streetlights we walked
Echoes of our laughter now just ghosts
Your whispered promises they haunt the night
In shadows of the past we came so close

Just like a movie without a happy end
Our script was torn and scattered in the wind
You took your love and left the pieces there
My heart now shattered beyond repair

Can break up my heart with pieces of our past?
Every memory just a splinter in the glass
These haunted halls replay our final cast
Trying to forget but the pain always lasts

His voice once a comfort now a distant sound
Every word a dagger pulling me down
Your touch a phantom that I cannot find
Lost in the labyrinth of your mind

We danced on that edge of a fragile lie
Nowhere to run and no way to deny
Searching for reasons in the starless sky
Left with the question of your silent goodbye

And now the nights crawl cold and slow
Playing our scenes back frame by frame
Your footprints washed away by the rain
But echoes of your name still remain
