When I Was Nobody

[Verse] When I was just a face in the crowd You turned your eyes and walked away Said my dreams were way too loud Couldn't hear a word I'd say [Verse 2] Now the lights are bright and I'm on stage You're singing my songs like you were bold But I remember every empty page The way your heart was always cold [Chorus] If I ever do become famous Watch me go I'm out the door You'll never know what my name is You weren't there when I was poor [Verse 3] Now you smile like we were close But your memory's not so clear You ghosted me when I needed most Don’t pretend you were ever here [Verse 4] You say now you always knew I had what it would take But you were never there it's true Just another fake handshake [Chorus] If I ever do become famous Watch me go I'm out the door You'll never know what my name is You weren't there when I was poor
