Never Fade Away

I’ve been walking railroads; I’ve been kicking stones

Trying to find the way back, trying to find a home

Caught inside a dark spot in the middle of the light

Maybe time just forgot to keep me in its sight

And left me here behind

That city’s like a fast stream, the blur of rushing lights

The way it bends around me while I live between the lines

The feeling you’re surrounded, the feeling you’re alone

The way the silence shouts it, the way its shadows glow

And with every other step I take

I can feel another slip away

I can see the colors bleed and fade

Like a picture cornered in its frame

Living like a memory trapped inside a room

You can leave alone for centuries but nothing ever moves

And like a broken record, the song that plays the same

The notes are still familiar but the way you hear them changed

And with every other step I take

I can feel another slip away

I can see the colors bleed and fade

Like a picture cornered in its frame

Sometimes when I’m dreaming that’s when I think I know

The story’s I’ve been reading, the stories still untold

Will give you happy endings, the hope that things can change

Will be forever mending and never fade away

And never fade away

Never fade away
