The Echo Remains, the song won't fade

Is it so wrong hanging onto your song?

Was I just mad?
that time - the best ...?

And if not plain crazy
Was I just lazy?
How did I lose?
Did I just fail to choose ... ?

Of course I survived.
But
what stayed alive?

Deep in my head,
like a book I've just read
the story returns

an echo which burns
but
wont
fade
away
