[Verse] Echoes rise like smoke in the dark A flicker of stars where it used to spark Time bends It breaks It twists and hums But the silence now It always comes [Prechorus] Where does it go The symphony's thread When the sound fades Is it truly day [Chorus] When the sound fades When it slips away Does it hide in the shadows or burn in the day When the sound fades When it leaves the room Does it vanish Or bloom Or dance in the gloom [Verse 2] Notes once bright now scatter like sand Fingers reach but they don’t understand The melody runs It hides It hides Lost in the folds of space and tides [Prechorus] Do we follow Or do we let it be When the sound fades Does it set us free [Chorus] When the sound fades When it slips away Does it hide in the shadows or burn in the day When the sound fades When it leaves the room Does it vanish Or bloom Or dance in the gloom
