lyrics

You’re thinking someone gave a damn
Cuz they all knew your name
But years passed and pretty fast
Things just ain’t the same
You’re still in all the right places
And you still shake their hands
But you know that they’re staring at
A portrait of a frightened man

Are you filling empty spaces? Is everyone your friend?
Can you crown yourself king of the underground again?

Wearing those insecurities
Like your old leather coat
You trust they don’t see the rust
On those brand new songs you wrote
Pretending you don’t give a damn
And studying the night
Bum smokes and retell jokes
But something about your timing isn’t right

You’re thinking someone gave a damn
Cuz they all knew your name
But pretty soon it’s an empty room
And the silence sounds like shame
You still whistle the melody
Oh, but you forgot the song
But nothing lasts and what came to pass
Is what you knew all along

You’ve heard it all before
You’ll hear it all again

You’re thinking someone gave a damn
Cuz they all knew your name
They’re gone, the curtains drawn,
and you still play on all the same
