Verse 1
I found a picture in my camera roll
Summer nights and a crowded phone
Blurry smiles, someone’s arm on mine
Swore those people were my whole life
Now I don’t even know their days
Or what they’re doing, where they’ve gone, their names
Well I know their names, but not their lives
It’s like we lived in a different time
Pre-Chorus
How does something feel like forever
Then disappear without a letter?
Chorus
I don’t know how to let things change
How to watch it all just drift away
Every moment turns to memory
And it’s killing me
That nothing stays, nothing stays the same
We were everything for a phase
Now we’re strangers with the same old face
And I’m scared I’ll fade the same way
Like I never came
Nothing stays, nothing stays the same
Verse 2
I scroll and scroll through who I was
Different rooms, different kinds of love
Different dreams I swore I’d keep
Different versions of me
And I’m here now in a brand new place
With different people, a different pace
But sometimes I don’t recognize
The girl behind my own eyes
Pre-Chorus
Why does moving on feel like losing?
Even when I know I’m choosing?
Chorus
I don’t know how to let things change
How to watch it all just drift away
Every moment turns to memory
And it’s haunting me
That nothing stays, nothing stays the same
We were everything for a phase
Now we’re stories that we don’t replay
And I’m scared I’ll fade the same way
Like I never came
Nothing stays, nothing stays the same
Bridge
Do they ever think of me
When they pass those same streets?
Or am I just a season
They don’t have a reason to keep?
I hold on like it’s my job
Like if I don’t, it’s all gone
Like every laugh, every night
Only lives if I keep it alive
Breakdown (soft)
I wish I could freeze a frame
Live inside a yesterday
But time keeps pulling me through
To someone new
Final Chorus
I don’t know how to let things change
How to not be so afraid
That I’ll turn into a memory
No one needs
That nothing stays, nothing stays the same
We were everything for a phase
Now we’re names I hesitate to say
And I’m scared I’ll fade the same way
Like I never came
Nothing stays, nothing stays the same
Outro
If I’m just a moment passing through
Will anybody hold onto me too?
Or will I just become a name
In someone else’s yesterday?
