Follow the Echo


There’s an echo in my dreams
I can’t drown out
Even when it makes no sound
Telling me to wait
That it’s all gonna be okay
Another slate wiped clean after midnight

Why relive each day, each life
Inside such a cluttered mind
Barely making it out alive
Because you do what they tell you to

And the echo gets restless
Escapes my eyes, water into light
I was never a good liar anyways
So here I stand barely holding on
But I’ve never felt so strong

We’ve been kept in the dark
They didn’t know we could close our eyes
To see where the light will lead
To an ocean deep or a cliff high and steep
We start over and let the phoenix rise

Why relive each day, each life
Inside such a cluttered mind 
Barely making it out alive 
Because you do what they tell you to 

Look at me and tell me what you see
And I’ll tell you what you need to know
Fears projected on the walls reflect
Break them down, they don’t serve or protect
Trust that fear will guide us where we need to go

Why relive each day, each life
Inside such a cluttered mind
Barely making it out alive 
Because you do what they tell you to 

Love Always,
Lainey
