you know, it's been a minute since you left **Title: "Shattered Dreams"** **Verse 1:** I gave my heart, tried to make it right, Held on tight through the darkest nights. Thought we'd weather every storm together, But you were lost, and I was just a tether. You said you needed time to find your way, I respected that, didn’t want to make you stay. One weekend later, you were back again, Acting like nothing had ever changed. **Chorus:** We’re dancing in the ruins of what we had, Caught in the echoes of the love we both thought we’d add. We’re stuck in the fight, can’t see the end, You wanted time, but now we just pretend. We’re tangled in the memories, the tears we’ve cried, Shattered dreams are the ghosts we can’t hide. **Verse 2:** I moved on, thought I’d found my peace, But you came back, and it’s all just ceased. Now we’re trading words like they’re punches in a ring, We’re breaking down everything, the love we used to sing. You need to heal, I need to be free, But here we are, where did we go wrong, tell me? You’re reaching out, but I’ve moved ahead, And every step you take feels like another thread. **Chorus:** We’re dancing in the ruins of what we had, Caught in the echoes of the love we both thought we’d add. We’re stuck in the fight, can’t see the end, You wanted time, but now we just pretend. We’re tangled in the memories, the tears we’ve cried, Shattered dreams are the ghosts we can’t hide. **Bridge:** Maybe it’s time to let it go, To end the fight, to stop the show. I tried to love, I tried to care, But now it’s just too much to bear. **Verse 3:** You say you need me, but you push away, And I’m stuck here, with nothing left to say. The clock keeps ticking, and so do we, In this endless loop, neither of us free. I’ll take the lessons and walk the line, With memories of a love that’s hard to define. You’ll find your path, I’ll find my peace, And maybe in the end, we’ll both find release. **Chorus:** We’re dancing in the ruins of what we had, Caught in the echoes of the love we both thought we’d add. We’re stuck in the fight, can’t see the end, You wanted time, but now we just pretend. We’re tangled in the memories, the tears we’ve cried, Shattered dreams are the ghosts we can’t hide. **Outro:** We’re just remnants of a love once bright, Living in the shadow of a long-lost light. It’s time to move on, to say goodbye, To the shattered dreams and the tears we cry.
