You wring me out, I tell the truth I feel amazing today You interrupt, you yell in my face But you finally hear me say That I'll walk, I'm walking away I watched myself fade and fade I laid down next to you For three years shedding my skin Dreaming about the potential The person I could have been I left home with nothing (3x) First saw you through childish eyes I was in love with a song A fleeting glimpse, romanticized And I hoped you let me hang on I went, I went along I lied to myself I always knew it was wrong I poured everything out It never would be enough I kissed you goodbye And hid for the rest of your life I stayed out of your way (3x) I'm fading, fading away (2x) I'm fading fading fading fading away
