There's a photo on the mantel dusty frame and cracked Once it held some laughter now it bears the past Faces blurred and faded memories gone astray Was it love or anger that made you walk away Echoes of the voices bouncing off the walls Silent accusations hidden in the halls Every whispered secret every stolen glance Caught in faded snapshots lost to circumstance Faded photo losing bright Truths once clear now out of sight In the glass reflections fight Memories dimming with the night Fingerprints upon it smudges of our lives Every touch connected every tear and sigh Dreams that snapped and shattered moments so surreal In the silence screaming everything we feel Dust it off but still it's cold Frozen stories left untold In the grayscale hearts unfold Tales of love that's growing old Faded photo losing bright Truths once clear now out of sight In the glass reflections fight Memories dimming with the night
