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.
