Lyrical Analysis of...
Echoes In My Head
- **Echoes in My Head**
- Verse 1
- Midnight, your name plays on loop inside my skull,
- city lights drip like tears, my chest feels full.
- I write your face on napkins, smudge the ink with pain,
- call it love or call it poison, either way it stains.
- You float in every melody that I can’t escape,
- whispered promises turned ghosts that won’t behave.
- I count the empty bottles, count the sleepless nights,
- wish I could press rewind and make the wrong things right.
- Pre Chorus
- I chase the quiet, but your shadow follows me,
- every room’s an echo of the way you breathe.
- Chorus
- Echoes in my head, you’re louder than the silence,
- I hear you in the static, in the broken radio dial.
- Echoes in my head, love’s a dangerous alliance,
- you keep me on the edge, then disappear for a while.
- Echoes in my head, can’t tell if it’s real or phantom,
- I keep replaying us like a song that won’t stop.
- Verse 2
- Bedroom’s full of pictures, memories on replay,
- your laugh is like a needle that keeps sewing me away.
- Told myself I’d be stronger, told myself I’d heal,
- but midnight cravings hit me like the way you feel.
- You wore my apologies like rings upon your skin,
- I kept my truth in pockets where the sun won’t in.
- We burned like faulty wiring, sparks and then a blackout,
- now I’m talking to the ceiling, trying not to break down.
- Pre Chorus
- Your perfume in the doorway, a ghost I can’t unlearn,
- every step I take forward folds me back to you.
- Chorus
- Echoes in my head, you’re louder than the silence,
- I hear you in the static, in the broken radio dial.
- Echoes in my head, love’s a dangerous alliance,
- you keep me on the edge, then disappear for a while.
- Echoes in my head, can’t tell if it’s real or phantom,
- I keep replaying us like a song that won’t stop.
- Bridge
- Maybe love is two kids with a match and a dream,
- lighting up our lungs until we forget the meaning.
- Maybe I’m addicted to the way you break me slow,
- to the aftertaste of you where the sweetest poison flows.
- I promise I tried to name a future we could keep,
- but mornings came and found me lonely in my sleep.
- Breakdown (soft)
- I talk to stars like they can tell me where you went,
- map my wounds in constellations, trace the minutes spent.
- Chorus (final, layered)
- Echoes in my head, you’re louder than the silence,
- I hear you in the static, in the broken radio dial.
- Echoes in my head, love’s a dangerous alliance,
- you keep me on the edge, then disappear for a while.
- Echoes in my head, I’m learning to stand without you,
- turning down the volume on the things you left behind.
- Echoes in my head, maybe someday I’ll forget you,
- but tonight you’re all the chorus playing in my mind.
- Outro
- Streetlight hums a lullaby, I breathe the night alone,
- pack the memories in pockets, try to find a new home.
- Echoes fade to whispers, morning paints the sky,
- I close my eyes and promise that I’ll try to say goodbye.
