In shadows cast by dreams that softly fade, The traces of your laughter haunt my mind, A hush in the night, where love once played.

To rid my heart of the jagged, throbbing crack, I should’ve looked away, should’ve never said hello. If only I could, I'd take the 'hi' back.

I hear your voice when the night grows still, a quiet echo threading through my chest, and every memory bends to your will.

I stand again where your footsteps used to fall, a quiet doorway holding the ghost of your name, and every breath reminds me of it all.
I walk the road where your voice used to stay, a soft echo rising from the quiet ground, and every thought pulls me back your way.
Weaver, Storyteller, weave me a lie Tell me a story, tell me a lie Tell me a story, a tale to make my heart light

I keep returning to the words we left unsaid, soft echoes drifting through the quiet night, and every path I take leads where you once led.
I keep returning to the place your smile once stayed, where sunlight touched your face like a gentle vow, and every step I take feels somehow delayed.
I said I hate you, but it wasn’t true. A venom loosed before I knew its weight. My deepest regret is the hate I drew. My voice had cracked; my shaking chin withdrew.
