My name won't mean a thing to you
The hometown you're just passing through
My friends and dreams and blues
But I was here
Like a hand print in an ancient cave
A stranger's name on a lonely grave
I leave this song to say
That I was here
I was here, I was here
I was here
I got dread and dreams I can't describe
A hero myth set to my times
And imagined, unlived lives
While I was here
Got a secret dream I'd die to guard
Of what I could be if I tried hard
And saw with just my heart
While I was here
I was here, I was here
I was here
And ever since I was a kid I've been transfixed by my own visions of life
And I'd lay awake on school nights and I'd live out all those fables in my mind
Try to create my place in lonely human heritage we're born into and bound to carry on
So when our people and our instants are dead and distant they'll be ancient, never gone
I was here, I was here
I was here
I was here, I was here
I was here
I'm not sure how my life'll go
If contending in good faith and hope
Will leave anything to show
For being here
But the continuation comforts me
New kids from here will form new dreams
An ancestor is all I'll be
But I was here
I was here, I was here
And when my world has disappeared
This song remains to make it clear
That I was here
My name won't mean a thing to you
The hometown you're just passing through
My friends and dreams and blues
But I was here
Like a hand print in an ancient cave
A stranger's name on a lonely grave
I leave this song to say
That I was here
I was here, I was here
I was here
I got dread and dreams I can't describe
A hero myth set to my times
And imagined, unlived lives
While I was here
Got a secret dream I'd die to guard
Of what I could be if I tried hard
And saw with just my heart
While I was here
I was here, I was here
I was here
And ever since I was a kid I've been transfixed by my own visions of life
And I'd lay awake on school nights and I'd live out all those fables in my mind
Try to create my place in lonely human heritage we're born into and bound to carry on
So when our people and our instants are dead and distant they'll be ancient, never gone
I was here, I was here
I was here
I was here, I was here
I was here
I'm not sure how my life'll go
If contending in good faith and hope
Will leave anything to show
For being here
But the continuation comforts me
New kids from here will form new dreams
An ancestor is all I'll be
But I was here
I was here, I was here
And when my world has disappeared
This song remains to make it clear
That I was here
