Fade

He started selling drugs for the money

Putting some to the side

Getting all fucked up on your own supply

Riding with the same group of guys

We used to hide away from

And I was so caught up

Tryna make it instead

That I cut you off just to get ahead

Scared that you were dragging me

Deeper down into the mud

Woah, oh!

What have we done

Cause you and I both could have

Whatever we wanted

But we were two punk kids

Though the costs were always fronted

Our growth was only stunted

Knowing we would always be picked back up

And I watched you

As you turned your back to our class

Embarrassed by the money

That our folks had

Man, I was too

But I only tried to strengthen the sun

And I always sit

Where we used to rest

Smoke cigarettes

And watch the sunset

Over our town

And the plans that we laid

As we fade, as we fade

And I don't really know where we should start

We were so damn different and born to drift apart

Maybe all we had in common

Was a love for the drugs

But I can still feel you pushing

Pushing down on my chest

As I cross my arms

And force my last breath

We were always willing to risk the blackout

For a shot at the buzz

And I always sit

Where we used to rest

Smoke cigarettes

And watch the sunset

Slow to the ground

Casting our shade

As we fade, as we fade

You're probably drunk

At the local bar

On a Wednesday afternoon

With the same old faces

That never had the guts to move

And I live back in my parents' house

With no clue what to do

Maybe quit the dream

And pick back up the school

And I always sit

Where we used to rest

Smoke cigarettes

And watch the sunset

And I hit you up

To see how you've been

You say you've been better

But you want to hang again

Though we both know

That promises made

Only fade, only fade

Only fade
