Lyrics
Verse 1:
He used to be the one they turned to,
A guiding light in the darkest night,
With wisdom like an ancient river,
Flowing deep, flowing wide.
But time has a way of turning,
The pages of our lives,
Now he's standing on the sidelines,
As the world just passes by.
Chorus:
He’s a shadow in the crowd,
A whisper in the wind,
A book with pages tattered,
But the story’s all within.
They don’t see the fire still burning,
In his heart, behind those eyes,
He’s a man of many seasons,
But they treat him like he's blind.
Verse 2:
He watched them build their castles,
On foundations made of sand,
Tried to offer all his knowledge,
But they just don’t understand.
In a world that’s chasing fast lanes,
He’s a poet in a storm,
A quiet voice of reason,
In a place that’s lost its form.
Chorus:
He’s a shadow in the crowd,
A whisper in the wind,
A book with pages tattered,
But the story’s all within.
They don’t see the fire still burning,
In his heart, behind those eyes,
He’s a man of many seasons,
But they treat him like he's blind.
Bridge:
One day they'll come to realize,
When the glitter fades away,
That the gold was in his wisdom,
That they threw away.
Chorus:
He’s a shadow in the crowd,
A whisper in the wind,
A book with pages tattered
Chorus:
He’s a shadow in the crowd,
A whisper in the wind,
A book with pages tattered,
But the story’s all within.
They don’t see the fire still burning,
In his heart, behind those eyes,
He’s a man of many seasons,
But they treat him like he's blind.
Outro:
He walks the lonely road now,
But he knows his truth inside,
Though the world may never see him,
He’s a star that still can shine.
They don’t see the fire still burning,
In his heart, behind those eyes,
He’s a man of many seasons,
But they treat him like he's blind.
Outro:
He walks the lonely road now,
But he knows his truth inside,
Though the world may never see him,
He’s a star that still can shine.
