fading, fading, fading
fading away from you
slowly dissipating
the only things I knew
I should probably burn
the promises you made
they've all been negated
now all they do is fade away
tunnel, tunnel vision
peripherals fall away
focus comes to a pinpoint
nothing left in my way
crumbling like an iceberg
struggling at sea
100 percent certain
you feel that way 'bout me
hey, hey
all I do is fade away
hey, hey
all I do is fade
fading, fading, fading
fading away from you
slowly dissipating
pinching off my view
forever has expired
truth evolved to doubt
narrowing down until
the memory is snuffed out
hey, hey
all you do is fade away
all you do is fade away
all you do is fade away

I remember when you said
I must have been out of my head
to bring it up, what it seemed
must have just been a bad dream
talk me down and ease my pain
get the thoughts out of my brain
subsequently dropping me
but still reassuring me
(chorus)
"we're just friends, there's nothing wrong
no clandestine goings on
just old friends, just hanging out
you can let go of those doubts"
remember when in jest I said
you'd likely end up in his bed
you laughed and said it wouldn't be
"we're just friends" well, so were we
I just saw your secret slipped
several years being tight-lipped
off to London overnight
hate to say that I was right
(chorus)
"we're just friends, there's nothing wrong
no commitment going on
just old friends, just hanging out
so let go of those doubts"

I wanna do something to care about
write a track someone wants to sing
something worthy of my gravestone
that years from now someone wants to read
I wanna change this place for good
no one listens, learns or cries
I could be giving cancer's cure
but I don't have the tits to flash
(chorus)
it's the fucking truth I'm a nobody
just use me up and throw me away
90 seconds left on the doomsday clock
and I really don't give a fuck
sitting down, plinking these letters
as I dream on about my life
being worth the shit I just took
but I'm not worth hearing,
I'm not worth saving or fighting for
I'm old and used up and I'm fat
I'm busy, I'm a fucking creep
because I have feelings, I have hope
because I wanna think something better is out there
(chorus)
it's the fucking truth I'm a nobody
just use me up and throw me away
so forgotten and such a burden
to remember, so just forget me
it's the fucking truth I'm a nobody
just use me up and throw me away
90 seconds left on the doomsday clock
and I really don't give a fuck

in the memory of what once was you
I'm walking in the snow
all alone, not knowing what to do
except think about how you're gone
(chorus)
ooh, attrition
it's beyond my volition
ooh, from my position
it wasn't the best decision
in the depth of black and white and grey
making clouds out of my breath
silhouettes of branches cut the sky
one set of footprints are what's left
(chorus)
ooh, attrition
it's beyond my volition
ooh, from my position
it wasn't the best decision
no messages carved high into a tree
and there's nowhere to go
there is no record of where we once went
except footprints in the snow
shoulders raised and up into my cheeks
walking far in a straight line
no one else to navigate around
this entire place is mine

I'm on my knees you're in my head
and nothing yet has been said
so razor sharp and in control
down in my bones and of my soul
you're in my face and is it real
you're something near that I can't feel
so very close and far away
there's just one thing I want you to say
(chorus)
just whisper to me
just smile at me
just look in my eyes
just touch me
you're on your knees and tantalize
I am aware I'm consuming lies
stumble across you in 3D
you could be real but not to me
a wire frame designed my man
and I'd kiss you if I can
lean into me make-believe friend
because you'll fade out in the end
