Fade Out

[Verse 1]

Fade out like a photograph

Just a memory to forget

You burn black like a cigarette

I'll discard you when I'm done

You break down when you need the rest

What a selfish way to drown

Then lay down with the thief you met

And enjoy the pride you've won

[Pre-Chorus]

So let loose those tears, darling

Cause I'll turn my back

[Chorus]

So tell me the story

How you lose this all, I'm guessing

But don't tell me you're sorry

I am through with it all and I won't be back again

[Verse 2]

I'm burnt out on your etiquette

How you caponize the son

Then lay down with another one

As you canonize yourself

[Pre-Chorus]

So let loose those tears, darling

Cause I'll turn my back

[Chorus]

So tell me the story

How you lose this all, I'm guessing

But don't tell me you're sorry

I am through with it all and I won't be back again

[Bridge]

You're breaking all the rules

And killing all my self-esteem that's left

You take me for a fool

You're killing all my self-esteem that's left

[Chorus]

So tell me the story

How you lose this all, I'm guessing

You're looking so worried

Can you feel it come undone?

Such a pitiful story

But I finally learned my lesson

But don't tell me you're sorry

I am through with it all and I won't be back again
