I sit all alone with my thoughts
Wondering why we ever fought
Where did it all go so wrong
Why am I now writing this song?

The echoes still fill the air
As I am trapped in an endless stare
Our love turned to pain and scars
Now we're just strangers under the stars

And I can't go back
No matter how I try
We built our world
Just to watch it die
The pieces are scattered
No matter how I try
I'm walking through ashes
Of the day we said goodbye

I trace the lines where you once stood
I'd bring you back here if I could
The rooms still echo with your name
But nothing inside feels the same

I reach for you but touch the air
Pretend sometimes that you are still there
Why does each memory cut like a knife
A dark shadow now drapes across my life

And I can't go back
No matter how I try
We built our world
Just to watch it die
The pieces are scattered
No matter how I try
I'm walking through ashes
Of the day we said goodbye
