Fade Away lyrics critique- pop song
by Rachel Stokes
(Columbia, SC)
(V1) u want me/ but at the same time u want her/ see i told u i didnt care and it wouldnt bother me/ but the truth is, it does and i cant bear to see/ u fallin in love with another girl/ cuz u were my whole world/ everything i did, i did for u/ and everything i said was true/ but apparently u didnt feel the same way to/ and it hurts like hell to watch all we had, fall thru
(chorus) cuz when it rains, it pours/ and not bein with u cuts to the core/ i thought we were on the same page/ but your drivin in a different lane/ and it's makin me insane/ to sit here and watch u fade away
(V2) i gotta say this now and i dont care how it sounds/ u thought u could play me like a game/ well the rules are bout to change/ because u told me i was your everything/ while u kept me on a chain/ cuz u knew i'd be there waitin/ for u to come back sayin/ everything i wanna hear/ whether it was true or not/ u knew that i'd believe it/ cuz i couldnt bear u leavin/ but the whole time i knew what u were doin/ i just turned my head the other way/ hopin u would stay
(repeat chorus)
(hook) i didnt wanna lose u/so i got down on my knees and did everything u told me/ hopin it would keep u here with me/ but it didnt and now i see
(new chorus) that even if the sky is blue/ i can be strong without u/ all u ever did was cause me pain/ even when it felt so good, it was still the same/ and even though it hurts to let u go/ i have to do it because i know/ that your never gonna change/ so it's time to let u fade away
