faded

You so easily amuse

like a pantomime

such a silent crime

 

You so easily abuse

lack of confidence

it's your best offense

 

You so easily confuse

you can't deny it

still you try to hide it

 

Faded

so faded

like a memory gone

there's no recollection

Faded

so faded

like a forgotten dream

further than it seems

 

You so hastily defy

when you think you need it

you find a way to bleed it

 

You so hastily deny

pleading innocence

it's your best defense

 

You so hastily reply

the moment that you said it

already regret it

 

Faded

so faded

like a memory gone

there's no recollection

Faded

so faded

like a forgotten dream

further than it seems
