Fade Out

Fade out like a photograph Just a memory to forget You burn black like a cigarette I’ll discard you when I’m done You break down when you need the rest What a selfish way to drown Then lay down with the thief you met And enjoy the pride you’ve won So let loose those tears, darling Cause I’ll turn my back So tell me the story How you lose this all I’m guessin’ But don’t tell me you’re sorry I’m through with it all And I won’t be back again I’m burnt out on your etiquette How you caponize the son Then lay down with another one As you canonize yourself So let loose those tears, darling Cause I’ll turn my back So tell me the story How you lose this all I’m guessin’ But don’t tell me you’re sorry I’m through with it all And I won’t be back again You’re breaking all the rules And killing all my self-esteem that’s left You take me for a fool You’re killing all my self-esteem that’s left So tell me the story How you lose this all I’m guessin’ You’re looking so worried Can you feel it come undone? Such a pitiful story But I finally learned my lesson Don’t tell me you’re sorry I am through with it all And I won’t be back again --- Fade Out - Seether
