Lost in the Echo (instrumental) Lyrics

You were that / foundation
Never gonna be another one no
I followed / so taken
So conditioned I could never let go
Then sorrow / then sickness
Then the shock when you flip it on me
So hollow / so vicious
So afraid I couldn"t let myself see
That I could never be held
Back or up no / I hold myself
Check the rep / yep you know mine well
Forget the rest / let them know my hell
There and back / yet my soul ain"t sell
Kept respect up / the best they fell
Let the rest be the tale they tell
That I was there saying . . .

In these promises broken / deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie / I can see through
This time I finally let you
Go
Test my will / test my heart
Let me tell you how the odds gonna stack up
Ya"ll go hard / I go smart
How"s that working out for y"all in the back, huh?
I"ve seen that frustration
Been crossed and lost and told no
And I"ve come back / unshaken
Let down and lived and let go
So you can let it be known
I don"t hold back I hold my own
I can"t be mapped / I can"t be cloned
I can"t C-flat / it ain"t my tone
I can"t fall back I came too far
Hold myself up and love my scars
Let the bells ring wherever they are
"Cause I was there saying. . .
NO / YOU CAN TELL "EM ALL NOW
I DON"T BACK UP / I DON"T BACK DOWN
I DON"T FOLD UP AND I DON"T BOW
I DON"T ROLL OVER / DON"T KNOW HOW
I DON"T CARE WHERE THE ENEMIES ARE
CAN"T BE STOPPED / ALL I KNOW / GO HARD
WON"T FORGET HOW I GOT THIS FAR
FOR EVERY TIME SAYING

In these promises broken / deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie / I can see through
This time I finally let you
Go
