Everywhere we go, we seek for a familiar heartbreak,
In shadows of the past where memories ache,
We wander through the echoes of lost sighs,
Hoping to find the tears in strangers' eyes.

In every whispered tale and mournful song,
We chase the echoes where our sorrows belong,
Through tangled paths and in the midnight's veil,
We yearn for a reflection of our failed trail.

Each touch of melancholy on the breeze,
Reminds us of the moments that won’t ease,
For in the familiar pain, we find our stake,
A comfort in the heartache we undertake.

Yet as we journey on through time and space,
We grasp at fleeting shadows we can’t replace,
Searching for the pain that once was true,
In every heartache, we seek to renew.
