Echoes
Lies Lyrics

Every breath you breathe is an apology
Your every breath is filled with remorse and regret

Your eyes are all cried out
You have exhausted all your tears, there is no more sadness left in your eyes

Every goodbye is a rest in peace
Every farewell signifies the end, a final farewell to the person or situation

But every cut that bleeds led you to me
Through all the pain and hardship, you have found your way to me

Every mirror you pass looks lonely
When you see your reflection, you feel a sense of isolation and loneliness

Your mind is cast with doubt
Your thoughts are filled with uncertainty and skepticism

Every loathsome mistake echoes her name
Each regrettable error reminds you of the person associated with it

In the absence of love, why did you covet the cover of night?
When love was lacking, you sought solace and protection in the darkness of night

Maybe your true colors are lies
Perhaps your real self is made up of deceit and falsehoods

Do you bleed black and blue?
Do you experience deep emotional pain and bruising?

Or is that a disguise?
Or are you hiding your true emotions behind a facade?

The echoes will fade in time
The lingering effects of past actions and words will gradually diminish

Friends and family are all out of sympathy
The people close to you no longer have empathy or compassion

Your lies too big to hide
Your falsehoods and deceptions are too significant and obvious to be concealed

Now every time you pray you burst into flames
Whenever you attempt to seek solace or redemption, it only leads to more pain

But every cut that bleeds led you right to me
Despite the suffering, each wound has brought you to my presence

In the absence of love unknown courage flourishes
When love is absent, the courage that emerges is unforeseen

If that's not enough then steer clear of mirrors
If even that level of bravery is insufficient, then avoid looking at your own reflection in mirrors
