Echoes
T.I.T.S. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My world has come apart
The bricks fall away (leaving only memories)
I walk with no hand
No hand to hold so I'm losing (all control)

I know I know you're already gone
You're never coming home
I know I know you're already gone
I face the nights (all alone)

We've spent our lives together for one another
A single moment took it all away
They said you had stopped breathing
The man in black took you from me

The birds they don't sing anymore
Would it even sound the same?
All I hear is echoes, of what I remember from yesterday

I know, I know you're already gone
You're never coming home
I know, I know you're already gone
I face the nights all alone

We've spent our lives together for one another
A single moment took it all away
They said you had stopped breathing
The man in black took you from me

We've spent our lives together for one another
A single moment took it all away
They said you had stopped breathing
The man in black took you from me
We've spent our lives together for one another
A single moment took it all away
They said you had stopped breathing




The man in black took you from me
He took you from me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of T.I.T.S.'s song "Echoes" depict a sense of loss and heartbreak. In the first verse, the singer expresses how their world has fallen apart, symbolized by the bricks that are falling away. They feel alone and abandoned, as there is no one to hold their hand and provide comfort, resulting in a loss of control.


The chorus reinforces the fact that the person they are addressing is already gone and will never return. They acknowledge the reality of the situation and the pain of facing the nights alone. The phrase "already gone" suggests that the departure was sudden or unexpected.


The second verse reveals that the singer and the person they are talking about had shared a significant portion of their lives together, possibly as a couple or close friends. However, everything changed in a single moment, which is described as the person supposedly stopping breathing. The mention of the "man in black" implies that this could be a reference to death or the grim reaper, who took the person away.


The following lines about the birds no longer singing and the echoes of past memories emphasize the sorrow and emptiness the singer feels. The absence of sound and the repetition of echoes further highlight the void left by the person's absence, making it difficult for the singer to move on.


Overall, the lyrics of "Echoes" revolve around the theme of loss, specifically the sudden departure of someone dear to the singer. Their world has crumbled, leaving them alone and struggling to cope with the pain and loneliness. The song expresses the raw emotions and longing for the person who was taken away, while also acknowledging the harsh reality of the situation.
