Shadows of Her Reflection

Shadows of Her Reflection
This song's theme

A man married a woman who looked like his ex-partner. Because he thinks she is his ex, the man is making life tough for the woman.
Lyrics

In a faded mirror, you see the past
Ghosts of a lover that didn't last
You've wrapped me in her shadows
Lost in a role I didn't cast

Am I her in your eyes?
A bittersweet disguise

When you call her name, I feel the sting
A hollow echo where love should sing
Trapped inside your memory's hold
In a chapter of love you can't unfold

I'm not her, I'm not a shadow on your wall
I'm the one who catches you when you fall
But if all you see is the love we couldn't save
Then I've become a ghost you couldn't brave

I see her in the way you look at me
In every touch, her memory creeps
We're living in her footsteps, a path I never chose
But here I stand, heart exposed

Am I her in your eyes?
A bittersweet disguise
Caught in this bittersweet guise

I love you but I'm losing my own name

I wear a skin that isn't truly mine
Wrestling with ghosts that linger past the line
The echoes of her laughter in the cave of your mind
I'm the echo that you struggle to find

Am I her in your eyes?
A bittersweet disguise
Trying to break free from this disguise

I love you more than shadows of regret
