Fade

Always been alone, wish I could call my mommy

Wrap me like a doll and just drive me home

Left out in the cold, where is everybody?

Thought there'd be something at the end of the road

If I screamed, would you hear it?

If I bled out, would you feel it?

And I know I should just let it go

But it's sewn in with a red thread

The grime under my nail beds

There's nowhere else that I could go

Oh hey, I'll celebrate my pain

Like ashes in a vase

Won't let it fade away

And hold my hand and walk me slow

I'm scared to cross the road

Won't let it fade away

Fade, fade away

Fade, fade away

Fade, fade away

I get down on my knees, a self-serving religion

Could I spend the night in my childhood home?

The sheets would be warm, my feet would hang over

Wouldn't be the same, but at least it'd be close

If I screamed, would you hear it?

If I bled out, would you feel it?

And I know I should just let go

Mmm, but it's sewn in with a red thread

The grime under my nail beds

And there's nowhere else that I could go

Oh hey, I'll celebrate my pain

Like ashes in a vase

Won't let it fade away

Oh, hold my hand and walk me slow

I'm scared to cross the road

Won't let it fade away

I've run my feet bloody to the bone

A little girl in a woman's coat

She's always there, crying with the door closed

Fade, fade away

Fade, fade away

Fade, fade away
