I Was Here

[Intro] sometimes I wonder what remains when everything keeps changing ⸻ [Verse 1] sometimes I wonder how much of me is still the same after all these years pieces change without permission so slowly you barely notice until one day you look back and miss someone you used to be ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] I DON’T NEED TO LIVE FOREVER I JUST NEED TO KNOW I WAS HERE ⸻ [Chorus] DON’T LET ME DIE HERE DON’T LET ME DISAPPEAR IF THERE’S SOMETHING LEFT OF ME WILL IT REMAIN? ⸻ [Verse 2] I still remember who I wanted to become some of him is still alive but some parts feel further away every year I keep moving and sometimes I can’t tell if I’m growing or disappearing ⸻ [Pre-Chorus 2] I DON’T NEED TO LIVE FOREVER I JUST NEED TO KNOW I WAS HERE ⸻ [Chorus 2] DON’T LET ME DIE HERE DON’T LET ME DISAPPEAR IF THERE’S SOMETHING LEFT OF ME WILL IT REMAIN? ⸻ [Breakdown] I DON’T WANT TO LIVE FOREVER I JUST DON’T WANT TO FADE AWAY I’M AFRAID THAT I’M ALREADY DISAPPEARING ⸻ [Pre-Final] maybe that’s all any of us want to leave behind something real something that proves we were here ⸻ [Final Chorus] DON’T LET ME DIE HERE DON’T LET ME DISAPPEAR IF THERE’S SOMETHING LEFT OF ME WILL IT REMAIN? MAYBE THAT’S ENOUGH TO KNOW I WAS HERE ⸻ [Final Chorus Extension] DON’T LET ME DIE HERE DON’T LET ME DISAPPEAR DON’T LET ME DIE HERE DON’T LET ME DISAPPEAR IF THERE’S SOMETHING LEFT OF ME WILL IT REMAIN? MAYBE THAT’S ENOUGH TO KNOW I WAS HERE ⸻ [Outro] maybe that’s all we ever leave a trace that says we were here
