Echoes

Every breath you breathe is an apology

Your eyes are all cried out

Every goodbye is a rest in peace

But every cut that bleeds led you to me

Every mirror you pass looks lonely

Your mind is cast with doubt

Every loathsome mistake echoes her name

But every cut that bleeds led you to me

In the absence of love, why

Did you covet the cover of night?

Maybe your true colors are lies

Do you bleed black and blue?

Or is that a disguise?

The echoes will fade in time

The echoes will fade in time

The echoes will fade in time

The echoes will fade in time

Friends and family are all out of sympathy

Your lies too big to hide

Now every time you pray you burst into flames

But every cut that bleeds

Led you right to me

'Cause maybe your true colors are lies

Do you bleed black and blue?

Or is that a disguise?

The echoes will fade in time

The echoes will fade in time

The echoes will fade in time

The echoes will fade in time

In the absence of love unknown courage flourishes

But if that's not enough then steer clear of mirrors
