The Guy You Never Heard Of
Darien Martus

He grew up on the fringes


Of a history that hinges on those


Standing in the spotlight


At the time he thought he hadn’t got it right


In the shadow of the best


He measured his success against


Impossible dimensions


And it isn’t fair for me to fail to mention:


He didn’t always know what to do


But once he made a choice


He always followed through


He hardly ever finished in first place


Still he never dropped out


Of the race


He says he never fit


Hand in a glove


He’s the guy


You never heard of


Someone else’s hero


As someone else’s years go by


In a thousand different sizes


Fragments no one recognizes


He followed circumstances



Danced someone else’s dances


In the shadow of the sounds


Where a thousand songs are falling all around


He didn’t always know what to do


But once he made a choice


He always followed through


He hardly ever finished in first place


Still he never dropped out


Of the race


He says he never fit


Hand in a glove


He’s the guy


You never heard of


He hardly ever finished in first place


Still he never dropped out


Of the race


He says he never fit


Hand in a glove


He’s the guy


You never heard of


Must want to be the guy


You never heard of
