Never Fade Away - Jamestown Story

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
