[Verse 1] Eliza's smile so brutal and clear Walk in the fire road I'm learning, I'm learning to be The parade writes her story She changes in her glory [Chorus] Eliza's smile is fading away Yes it's fading away Stuffed with dry voices Words covered in dust When the evening falls Sprung from shame and pride She don't recognize When the innocence dies [Verse 2] Staring out my window Mirrors buy well of reason Fearful for each change Each change of season Cause god forbid Don't ask the wrong questions [Chorus] But Eliza's smile is fading away oh it's fading away Atuffed with dry voices And words wilted in rust Eliza your smile is fading away oh it's fading away Atuffed with dry voices And words wilted in rust Oh to be blissfully known Never let go of control Oh to be blissfully known And in control of nothing at all Nothing at all
