Fading Away

Too bad the bad conversation
Too bad the poor choice of words
Don't let me go and spoil the pary
It's not the end of the wold
There's a reason why you're fading away
I know you want things to be perfect
And I've done the best that I could
There's no use in asking your forgiveness
Cause it's never done me any good
There's a reason why you're fading away
And in the morning when
You get around to counting all the casualties
Oh you lined them up and you dropped them
One by one
So you open up your eyes and
You see the cold pale face of reality
And there's a shiver in your spine
Cuase you see that ther'es damage you've done
And there's a reason why you're fading away
Fading, fading, fading, fading away
