[Verse 1]
I saw a shadow but it slipped through the cracks
A name on a stone no one ever looks back
They lived in the sun but now they fade in the night
Not a soul knows their story till we give it some light
[Prechorus]
Who were they who are they now
Questions echo but no one shouts
[Chorus]
Forgotten faces in the crowd
Silent voices screaming loud
They don’t exist till we recall
Just a memory that's all that's all
[Verse 2]
They left their footprints in the mud not the sand
Time washes quick doesn’t care for the land
A laugh a tear a fight a win
Now just a whisper lost in the din
[Prechorus]
Who were they who are they now
Questions echo but no one shouts
[Chorus]
Forgotten faces in the crowd
Silent voices screaming loud
They don’t exist till we recall
Just a memory that's all that's all
