Fading (i Give Up)

Dorling

When I look in the mirror


I wonder where my smile has gone


But when I look back at today


I ask did it ever belong


All I do to myself each night is offer my abuse


E double M A


What is the use?





Chorus:


I don't know where I'm going


And I don't know what to say


I know there's no point in showing


'cos it's better off this way





So I'll keep parading


Pretending that I'm fine


But what's the point in existing


When I don't get two seconds of your time?


The memory is fading


And I look for my smile


But it's way down inside me


And it will be lost for a while





Chorus





History is fading


Light it up


Masquerading


All of this sucks


I've been down here waiting


For a little piece of luck


But I know I won't get it


Until my time is up





Why is it that I can't say the things I want to, to your face?


All I do is sit alone and get annoyed in this dark place


I can't say that when you're here I've ever been a happy man


So why is it, that when I sleep, your face is all I comprehend?


Fading, I give up


Fading, I give up.
