This song tells a gritty story of love, betrayal, and regret, following a man released from prison who returns to a world where trust has already been broken beyond repair. Torn between guilt, loyalty, and heartbreak, it captures the painful realization that some mistakes outlive apologies, leaving only echoes where love once belonged.

Song Lyrics

×
(Strophe)
I did my time behind those walls of gray.
Counted years like scars that never fade away.
Wrote your name on every cell I knew.
Dreamed of sunlight, dreamt of you.

Cold nights, fights, and busted pride.
But I held on, you were my light inside.
Now I'm free, but the world's not the same
You and my brother - damn, that's a hell of a flame.


(Refrain)
I'm sorry, baby, I lost my way.
Didn't mean to let our love decay.
It was wrong, I swear it's through.
I still belong right next to you.

I'll break these chains, I'll make it Right.
No more secrets, no more lies tonight.
Please believe me, please don't go.
I still love you, more than you'll ever know.


(Strophe)
You say "forgive," but I'm still sore.
Spent half my life behind a steel door.
You had your fun while I did time.
Guess freedom cuts both ways in crime.

My brother's face, I can't Forget.
He's got my blood, now he's my threat.
Still, I breathe deep, swallow the pain.
'Cause raising hell won't break your shame.


(Refrain)
I'm sorry, baby, I lost my way.
Didn't mean to let our love decay.
It was wrong, I swear it's through.
I still belong right next to you.

I'll break these chains, I'll make it Right.
No more secrets, no more lies tonight.
Please believe me, please don't go.
I still love you, more than you'll ever know.


(Strophe)
You talk of love like it's a holy vow.
But faith is cheap when it's broken now.
Still, I'm a fool, can't let you fade.
Built my hope on the mess we made.

Told myself "just let it slide".
Keep my rage somewhere deep inside.
Won't face my brother, not today.
Let silence speak what words can't say.


(Refrain)
I'm sorry, baby, I lost my way.
Didn't mean to let our love decay.
It was wrong, I swear it's through.
I still belong right next to you.

I'll break these chains, I'll make it Right.
No more secrets, no more lies tonight.
Please believe me, please don't go.
I still love you, more than you'll ever know.


(Strophe)
I caught you laughing in that neon haze.
Same old bar, same cheap plays.
Your hand in his - yeah, what a Show.
Guess some things I just had to know.

I raised my glass, said, "You two look Right".
No screaming match, no need to fight.
Leant in close, whispered low, real slow.
"She'll drop you too, when there's nowhere left to go".


(Refrain)
I'm sorry, baby, I lost my way.
Didn't mean to let our love decay.
It was wrong, I swear it's through.
I still belong right next to you.

I'll break these chains, I'll make it Right.
No more secrets, no more lies tonight.
Please believe me, please don't go.
I still love you, more than you'll ever know.


(Refrain)
I'm sorry, baby, I went too far.
Now you're gone, and that's who we are.
I can't undo what I let die.
Just me and echoes, askin' why.

You walked away, I saw the truth.
You took my heart, and left the proof.
I still whisper your name when the night gets Long.
Guess you were right. I don't belong.
