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 is just forgot
To keep me in its sight
And left me 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.
Livin' like a memory
Trapped inside a room
You can leave me alone for centuries
But nothin' 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 stories 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
Never fade away
Never fade away
Never fade away
