Timeflies - Fade lyrics

[Hook] In the dead of the night, when I'm away Do you think about tomorrow or yesterday When its forgotten you'll wish I stayed I'm tryna be right this is my life I can't wait So watch us fade You said you liked a guy with dreams and goals You were tired of the men who had sold their souls Followin' the fold, but thats not true Following the gold that's more like you Now a chance to escape from all of that life Cause you wanna escape from all of that right? Here's your chance, but I warned you well in advance Still you decide to try your shot at changin' faces Tell you right now lady that you know we're goin' places Its a wild ride so please girl hold on Take my hand now girl and we can't go wrong Hope you realize chasin' dreams ain't easy They'll be times when you can't find but need me Too much of your life's planned Lets just wing it life's a game and I'm beggin' you to bring it Right here, I know that there's too much to lose Its a wake up call girl but you're still hitting snooze You say give up too quickly and I don't know why But I know you will miss me when you lie awake and cry [Hook] [Verse 2] I told you that I wanna be a music man You said, “alright baby whats your backup plan?” I wonder why that's the first place you go You could have a little faith girl, you know? I know this dream could be a long shot But you could show some support and what not Finally finance I turn and say Made it up, its what her daddy does anyway I feel bad how I am forced to lie Sometimes your dreams need an alibi Clearly that's an answer that she likes to hear She grabs my face and whispers something in my ear “You're gonna be a great man one day,” yeah maybe I'll get mine some day Rather leave and not lie, it ain't right, now you're stuck right here girl [Hook] [Verse 3] Thinkin' where I was back when I wrote this Now I know that you probably run around and quote this, focus Maybe you could find yourself a lesson Instead of feelin' sorry for yourself and second guessin' The shoulda, coulda, wouldas, is where you've gone wrong You were prayin' I'd fail, now look what I'm on Couldn't stay long cause I felt a purpose but back then I only felt worthless Yeah, I guess you kinda deserve this (Chorus x2) In the dead of the night I told you girl that you could watch us fade I'm tryna be right, this is my life I can't wait So watch us fade
