I’ve fallen away where have I gone I’m in a place I don’t belong Empty is all that I contain Built upon this stack of shame I don’t know what went wrong I just want to be loved Just one night would make it right One last chance to win this fight And bring us back to where we began Back when all we had were plans And I could tell you loved me And it was clear we’d be forever one Before things changed, before we began to fade Out of touch out of sight
Out of that poor child’s life we brought into this world I guess I’m out of here for good (Chorus) I’m Fading, I’m fading away And before the realization hits me let me say that I’m OK I’m fine, cause I’m free Ah that’s just reverse psychology To make me feel like I’m alive I have to tell myself these lies New beginning – a new start Got a job at the walmart To help pay the child support so nobody accuses me again I’m fading away
