Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I woke up to another mess in the living room
Broken bottles all around my feet
They came again in the night under crescent moon
Didn't wake me in my sleep
[Verse 2]
'Cause they talk and drink
And laugh 'bout things
And fall in love in my backyard
I hide and cower in the corner
Conversations getting hard
[Verse 3]
'Cause nobody seems to ask about me anymore
Nobody seems to care about anything I think
Nobody seems to recognize me in the crowd
In the background screaming, "Everybody look at me"
[Verse 4]
And I'm fading away, you know, I used to be on fire
And I'm fading away, you know, I used to be on fire
I'm standing in the ashes of who I used to be
And I'm fading away, you know I used to be on fire
You know I used to be on fire
You know I used to be on fire, fire
[Verse 5]
I used to be a darling starlet, like a centerpiece
Had the whole world wrapped around my ring
I flew too closely to the sun that's setting in the east
And now I'm melting from my wings
[Verse 6]
'Cause I'd laugh and drink
And talk about things
And fall in love in my backyard
Now it's my own anxiety
That makes the conversation hard
[Verse 7]
'Cause nobody seems to ask about me anymore
Nobody ever cares about anything I think
Nobody seems to recognize me in the crowd
In the background screaming, "Everybody look at me"
[Verse 8]
And I'm fading away, you know, used to be on fire
And I'm fading away, you know, I used to be on fire
I'm standing in the ashes of who I used to be
But I'm fading away, you know, I used to be on fire
You know, I used to be on fire
You know, I used to be on fire
Well, I used to be on fire
You know, I used to be on fire
[Verse 9]
You know, I used to be on fire
You know, I used to be on fire, fire
