Echoes - Lauren Aquilina

Hands down, caught in the middle

You knew I was waiting for the light

But the days got dark for a little

And they can’t see that you’re trouble

You said you could change like fire to the rain

But the days stayed dark for a little

I cut my teeth on the words you speak

Getting lost in the echoes

And your young years cover up my ears

Getting lost in the echoes

Cause you built love inside a vacant home

You put my hand in yours

But I was never yours to hold

You knew my fears would always keep me here

You put my hand in yours

But I was never yours to hold

I was never yours to hold, no

I was never yours to hold, no

Head high, losing the battle

Cover up your own tracks and take it back

But your days got dark for a little

Found me foolish and fickle

Never change my mind, just gave up on a time

When the days got dark for a little

I cut my teeth on the words you speak

Getting lost in the echoes

And your young years cover up my ears

Getting lost in the echoes

Cause you built love inside a vacant home

You put my hand in yours

But I was never yours to hold

You knew my fears would always keep me here

You put my hand in yours

But I was never yours to hold

Never gonna give you hope

Never gonna let you go

Never gonna feel you in my bones

Cause I was never yours to hold

Never gonna lose control

Never gonna be the heart you stole

I’ll be burning bright out on my own

Cause I was never yours to hold

I was never yours to hold

Cause you built love inside a vacant home

You put my hand in yours

But I was never yours to hold

You knew my fears would always keep me here

You put my hand in yours

But I was never yours to hold

I was never yours to hold, no

I was never yours to hold, no
