Memories (v2)

Verse 1:
There’s a room in my mind I don’t visit much
Dust on the frames, afraid to touch
Your voice still echoes down the hall
But it’s softer now, and barely calls

We had pages, torn and bent
Moments I don’t know where they went
I reach for you in the dark, unclear
Was it ever real or just sincere?

Chorus:
Memories fade like light through rain
What stays behind is mostly pain
I try to hold the good, but it slips through
A shadow version of me and you

Verse 2:
I keep forgetting what we said
Was it love, or just things we read?
You told me once I’d lose the thread
And now it’s tangled in my head

I chase reflections in broken glass
Each one a moment I couldn’t grasp
If I could stitch it all back right
Would you be more than noise at night?

Chorus:
Memories fade like light through rain
What stays behind is mostly pain
I try to hold the good, but it slips through
A shadow version of me and you

Bridge:
I don’t know what’s true anymore
The timelines twist, the reasons warp
But there’s a version of us I miss
Even if it never quite existed

Verse 3:
So if you see me looking lost
Know the silence comes with cost
I built a shrine inside my chest
To all the words I never said

Chorus (final):
Memories fade like light through rain
What stays behind is mostly pain
But even ghosts deserve a place
So I let you haunt me, just in case

Outro:
If you’re still out there, if you care
Know I search for you in the air
And when I vanish too, I hope it’s true
You’ll hold a memory of me like I do you
