Echo

An echo is the sound of loneliness It can come in many forms It can even be a broken heart That's weathered many storms It's found in every teardrop As it falls from someone's cheek Or maybe a feeling of hopelessness In a time when things look bleak It's hidden inside betrayal Like a promise in disguise It's found in all our shattered dreams That takes the form of lies It's found in every heartbeat That used to beat as two We can find it in confusion When we don't know what to do An echo is the loneliest sound That one will ever hear We'll always hear it more than once For it will always reappear
