Never the Same

Your voice still echoes in my head A haunting song that I cannot forget The cracks in your smile, they were hard to see A quiet storm raging underneath We were blind, caught in the unknown Couldn't see the pain that didn't let go Now the laughter's a ghostly trace A shattered frame we can't replace Could we have broken the veil Or were you trapped in silence unable to hear your wail And now it's never the same, never the same The world feels colder, with just your name Pulled the trigger, left it all behind Now we're stuck here, losing our minds Never the same, no, it won't ever be Why couldn't she see she could lean on me The memories cut like shards of glass A broken mirror reflecting the past The joy, now bittersweet A melody stuck on repeat We're holding on, but it's a bitter game Trying to move forward, a sanity unable to tame Could've done more, could've found a way But now it's too late—she slipped away The weight's too heavy, it cuts so deep Your memory is all we can keep And now it's never the same, never the same The world feels colder, with just your name Pulled the trigger, left it all behind Now we're stuck here, losing our minds Never the same, no, it won't ever be Why couldn't she see she could lean on me Now I'm screaming, only able to grieve Asking why you had to leave Could've fought the demons side by side But you ran and left us paralyzed I hope you've found the peace you sought The battle's over, but at what cost A hole in our hearts that won't repair We're living in the pain, trapped in a snare No, it's not fair, not fair at all You threw the phone, not able to take a call Could've fought with you, pulled you through I'm left here thinking what else could I do And now it's never the same, never the same The world feels colder, with just your name Pulled the trigger, left it all behind Now we're stuck here, losing our minds Never the same, no, it won't ever be Why couldn't she see she could lean on me I hope you've found your peace But the scars you left, they'll never cease We'll carry on, though it feels so wrong Your memory lives in this broken song
