Echo by Jon Perkins Lyrics

[Verse 1]

When you came I walked away
I've got nothing left to say again
Trying to keep the peace

No way to return
You left the door ajar
No money and no car
I can only get so far when..

[Pre-Chorus 1]

You keep putting me down
You keep putting me down
Is there a place for me here?
There's a building fear...
I'm holding back

[Chorus]
Your echo is ringing through my mind
I try to speak but I can't find the words to say
Won't let go
Another casualty of time
Before my eyes we fall behind another day

[Verse 2]

Is this a borderline mistake..?
We push oursеlves so far we nearly brеak
For what we knew was never real
I threw the covers off my bed
I punched the pillows
Shook my head
It's like I'm falling off the edge, and...

[Pre-Chorus 2]

You keep putting me down
You keep putting me down
With these stories..
Unfolding..
You know that I'm holding back

[Chorus]
Your echo is ringing through my mind
I try to speak but I can't find the words to say
Won't let go
Another casualty of time
Before my eyes we fall behind another day
