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