Sometimes I drift back to when we were close
The way you laughed like nothing else mattered the most
I told myself you were the one for me
Yet I felt alone even when you were with me
Love can linger like a shadow in your mind
A quiet ache that won't leave, no matter the time
When we realized we didn't align
You said friends, but I didn't feel fine
And though I wanted closure, I won't pretend
You left a mark I can't just mend
Now I see you as a stranger in the glow
But I still remember, even though
You didn't have to disappear
Act like we never existed here
I don't need your love, it's true
But the way you fade makes it hard to move
Now you're just echoes of someone I knew
Echoes of someone I once called you
I replay the moments where I felt betrayed
Thinking maybe I caused the mistakes you made
But I won't live stuck in your old lies
Reading between the words and the silent goodbyes
You said you'd move on and let it be
But the memory still finds its way back to me
I don't need the reminders or the pain
Yet in the dark, your shadow still remains
Though I wanted closure, I won't pretend
You left a mark I can't just mend
Now I see you as a stranger in the glow
But I still remember, even though
You didn't have to disappear
Act like we never existed here
I don't need your love, it's true
But the way you fade makes it hard to move
Now you're just echoes of someone I knew
Echoes of someone I once called you
Time has a way of softening the sting
Yet some echoes never lose their ring
I'm dancing past the hurt and the night
Chasing freedom in the neon light
You didn't have to disappear
Act like we never existed here
I don't need your love, it's true
But the way you fade makes it hard to move
Now you're just echoes of someone I knew
Echoes of someone I once called you
