Perhaps it was always meant to be this way

Two hearts walking different paths

As if I was always meant to leave you behind

Perhaps we were always meant to be nothing

Like sand castles, we built ourselves up

Only to let the ocean drag us apart

Perhaps I was always meant to feel the ache of you

Guiding me always to seek the light of others

Instead of lingering alone in the dark

Perhaps we were always meant to be recorded only in words, a love never given form

Perhaps we were always meant to be an echo, adding memories to every lost days

Perhaps we live in a land where the footprints of ghosts linger
