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
