In the schoolyard shadows, whispers in the air
Chasing dreams of freedom, but I found despair
Bullies tore me down, bad grades on the cert
Standing all alone, pretending not been hurt
Few friends held my hand through the stormy night
But mostly walked alone in the absence of light
Bad looks in the mirror haunted me every day
Echoes of my choices never fade away
Left my best friend for a girl I thought was gold
Regret on my shoulders, a weight I can't hold
Bad looks in the mirror haunted me every day
Echoes of my choices never fade away
Left my best friend for a girl I thought was gold
Regret on my shoulders, a weight I can't hold
She left this world, now I'm drowning in my tears
Echoes of the past, they've been haunting me
Echoes of my choices never fade away
