drizzle drizzle falls the rain head down i finally fight the pain that resonates from inside out tonight and on this slower east side street my triumphs and my present meet to question me if where i am is right and i can still hear daddy saying you should know i m proud and too many voices from before they grow too loud they re just echoes in my mind echoes of a time when the climb was not so steep and i m hoping the echoes in my mind echoes in time the echoes will let me sleep it s not my fault i got distracted love and monthly rent detract from taking home the trophy every day the laughter of my old best friend it fades delays but doesn t end and i wonder was it me who pulled away i can t take these echoes in my mind echoes of a time when the climb was not so steep and i m hoping the echoes in my mind echoes in time the echoes will let me sleep cause i hear the years the cheers i thought i had it all but champions can t rise oh they fall but now i m here and i fear that who i am can t last i m not my past but it won t stop calling to me echoes in my mind the echoes in time the echoes in my mind echoes of a time when the climb was not so steep and i m hoping the echoes in my mind echoes in time the echoes i m hoping i m hoping they let me sleep yeah yeah yeah i hope they ll let me sleep oh oh oh echoes
