Iron Cedar – "Songs Remain"
Iron Cedar – "Songs Remain" [Verse 1] People fade away, that's just life movin' on, Old front porch talks turn to echoes in a song. Pictures lose their color, frames gather dust, But the words we leave behind never turn to rust. I don't really know if you know what this life meant to me, Same man, just workin' hard, tryin' to make ends meet. Couldn't stand still, bein' stuck in one place, Had to shuffle my feet, had to pick up the pace. Long nights, hard roads, dirt underneath my boots, Plantin' little seeds, hopin' someday they'd bear fruit. [Hook] People fade away, memories fade away, Pictures on the wall slowly wash to gray. But songs remain forever, long after we're gone, Carryin' our stories every time they're sung. That's the true definition of leavin' a legacy, A voice that keeps on livin' through every melody. [Verse 2] I ain't chasin' riches, I ain't chasin' fame, Just hopin' somebody remembers my name. Not because I shouted, not because I shined, But because I gave my heart one line at a time. Every scar's a chapter, every tear's a page, Every beat I write is another piece of age. If tomorrow calls me home before the morning light, Press play on these records and I'll still be by your side. [Bridge] The trucks break down, the old bars close, The highways change where the cold wind blows. But a song can cross every county line, Carry a soul through the hands of time. [Final Hook] People fade away, memories fade away, Pictures lose their color day after day. But songs remain forever, that's the truth I see, The only thing that time can't steal from me. When they ask who Iron Cedar used to be, Tell 'em, "He left his heart inside every melody."
