Lyrics
(Verse 1)
In the chaos of the night, I stood frozen in fear,
As the world around me crumbled, tragedy drew near.
The screams echoed loud, piercing through the air,
As I watched the ones I loved, consumed by despair.
(Pre-Chorus)
I tried to reach out, to save them from the flames,
But fate had its own cruel games.
Haunted by the faces, the voices in my mind,
In that moment, I left my innocence behind.
(Chorus)
I'm haunted by the memories, the lives I couldn't save,
In the aftermath of tragedy, I'm just a broken slave.
With guilt heavy on my shoulders, I carry on each day,
Forced to move forward, but my heart still in dismay.
(Verse 2)
Among the wreckage and the rubble, I search for a sign,
A reason to believe that someday, I'll find peace of mind.
But the weight of loss is crushing, a burden I can't bear,
As I wander through the ruins, consumed by despair.
(Pre-Chorus)
I see their faces in my dreams, hear their voices in the night,
As I struggle to make sense of this endless plight.
Feeling responsible for every life that was lost,
But in the chaos of survival, there's no time to count the cost.
(Chorus)
I'm haunted by the memories, the lives I couldn't save,
In the aftermath of tragedy, I'm just a broken slave.
With guilt heavy on my shoulders, I carry on each day,
Forced to move forward, but my heart still in dismay.
Bridge)
But in the ashes of despair, I find a flicker of hope,
A strength deep within me, helping me to cope.
Though the scars may never fade, I'll rise above the pain,
And honor the memories of those who didn't remain.
(Chorus)
I'm haunted by the memories, the lives I couldn't save,
In the aftermath of tragedy, I'm just a broken slave.
With guilt heavy on my shoulders, I carry on each day,
Forced to move forward, but my heart still in dismay.
(Outro)
Through the tears and the sorrow, I'll find my way,
For their spirits guide me, through each darkened day.
And though I'll never forget, I'll learn to live again,
(Outro)
Through the tears and the sorrow, I'll find my way,
For their spirits guide me, through each darkened day.
And though I'll never forget, I'll learn to live again,
In the aftermath of tragedy, finding strength to mend.
