We built our names from silver sound
Chasing the thunder we never looked down
Every word we threw became a wall
Every truth too sharp, too small
We dance inside the feedback's glow
Hearts on fire we
didn't know
How fragile silence could become When every echo drowns the sun
We echoed too loud,
till the stars came apart Lost in the crowd of our
mechanical hearts
We burned through the clouds,
couldn't hear what we found
We echoed,
we echoed too loud
The city sang in broken tones Every light a ghost we owned
You spoke in static airy flies With every word a little died
We mistook the noise for breath
The signal for the rest
Our laughter blurred the quiet rains Now all that's left's the stain
We echoed too loud,
till the meaning gave way Called out the sound,
and lost what we'd say
We burned through the night,
too bright,
too proud We echoed,
we echoed too loud
There's beauty in the faith In what we can't replay
But we kept shouting through the haze Until the words decayed
And
the sky turned grey
Silence allowed the noise to decay
If love was a sound,
it's gone underground But it still surrounds
We echoed too loud
