We danced in
Black-and-white
Your hand in mine
The world felt
Right
But time spun gold into rust
And love
Like cities
Turned to dust
You swore the stars
Would never fall
But now I watch
Them from these walls
And I hear
The echoes of tomorrow
In the silence
You left behind
Like vinyl
Cracking through the sorrow
Of a love we couldn't rewind
Was it fate
Or just the times?
We were warnings
In disguise
I wore your name like a song
But nothing fragile lasts that long
You spoke of dreams we'd never see
Like ghosts of you and me
You said that hope was made to bend
But some songs break before they end
And I hear the echoes of tomorrow
In the silence you left behind
Like vinyl cracking through the sorrow
Of a love we couldn't rewind
In the static of goodbyes
We were futures in disguise
All that's real is fading slow
Neon hearts in monochrome
Now I sing the echoes of tomorrow
With a voice that shakes the night
If they ask what we were fighting
Say we lost the will to fight
And the world went on just fine
But I still loved you in that time
