I was bold and full of dreams
Thought I'd shine through all the years
But now I'm here, ten years gone
Still lost in the same old crowd
I was sharp, knew all the lines
But I let the purest go
Then one look, one laugh with you
Left a scar I still hold
I'm the one who walked right past you
Did you ever feel the same
I'm the one who wrote that letter
That you never got to read
I was quiet in the hallway
Too scared to call your name
Now I'm someone you don't know
How many of us stay the same
I'm the one who walked right past you
Did you ever feel the same
I'm the one who wrote that letter
That you never got to read
Like the ones who fade away
Like the songs we never play
Like a word left half-way said
Does it still ring in your head
Like the ones who fade away
Like the songs we never play
Like a word left half-way said
Does it still ring in your head
