Fade Away Songtext

von Ten Foot Pole

Keep on playing me
I'm not a toy
I'm different from everyone else
Lies are what you believe in
Promises that you'll never keep
Don't tell me stories of your pastime glories
They've faded away with the sun faded away
I'm flying high above the gray
See it on the floor beneath my feet
Can't control what's out of my hands
The river looks so deep and I don't want to swim
In the muddy waters that you offer me
I'm not going to waste no more of the good life
Watching you fade away
Hands on a watch turn like the wheels on a train
And the days turn to weeks
The months seem the same
Look at all the bulls*** that surrounds me
Plastic people
Different countries speak different words
They're all the same
Life for them is just a game
I want a way out but i'm stuck here
I need an excuse to be myself again
How long will I have to wait
Just fading away faded away
I'm sitting in the back because
It's where I belong
I don't say anything
Just try to get along on to the runway to catch another plane
I'm going back home to be myself again
