Lyrics
Most days I feel like a letter lost on its way Unable to deliver what I was trying to say Gone and forgotten, vanished into the fray Words I still recite from a long-ago day Used to think life got better as we aged like wine Lately I feel like a star that forgot how to shine I see light all around me, yet I lost track of mine Thought by now my dreams and reality would align So many opportunities lost thinking I needed a sign I won’t deny there were times I’ve been borderline Can’t give up now, just keep pretending I’m fine Nice guys finish last, that’s the world’s design Most days I feel like a letter lost on its way Unable to deliver what I was trying to say Gone and forgotten, vanished into the fray Words I still recite from a long-ago day I see the brave ones and the risks that they take Tell myself it would be easy if not for every ache I speak my words low so no one hears the shake Maybe if I speak real slow I won’t make a mistake Flash an awkward smile for the occasion’s sake Might be barely holding on, but I refuse to break If I never move on, there are no memories to make Just ’cause my light’s gone, I shouldn’t be opaque Most days I feel like a letter lost on its way Unable to deliver what I was trying to say Gone and forgotten, long since turned grey Words I still recite from a long-ago day Trapped in my own head, screaming all along There’s got to be more than just hanging on Nobody knows how long until we are gone Who’s gonna miss someone this withdrawn On my knees, face raised toward the dawn Asking myself, where did it all go wrong Most days I feel like a letter Lost on its way Unable to deliver what I was trying to say Gone and forgotten Long since turned grey Words no one will hear From a long-ago day
