Echoes

The tone you set is impossible to render
You claim to be just fine but the ambiance does not align
Silence won't guide the way to redemption
You put the truth on hold
Where you should allow it to unfold

You keep it locked inside that vault
I watch it fade into the void
What has been done is not your fault
The quiet is your enemy

You disappear
The memory weighs heavily
Condemned to hear
The echoes from your past

You keep searching for solace
But you just sink into deeper depths
It builds around every conversation
You put the truth on hold
When you really should have it been told

Isolated
Can you explain
I don't mean to breathe down your neck
But you have to let this out
You disappear
The memory weighs heavily
Condemned to hear
The echoes from your past
