Fading Face

Clever deception
To keep your heart protected
You're splitting seams of memories with nicotine
What made you scared to day dream?

Seems you're the perfect fit
Too bad I'm a nervous wreck
I'm breathing through my teeth
And sweating down my neck

I am meant to be a memory
A transient in time

It's clear were done
Now am I just a fading face?
I read between the lines, just should've closed my eyes
And I'm moving on
But the silence is deafening
No love left behind
A temporary ghost inside your mind

Spent half a decade
Putting on the same face
Living like it's not your life
We're short on time
Would you care to start explaining?

Can you recall caring at all?
Like a train leaving it's station
I become your hallucination

I am meant to be a memory
A transient in time

It's clear were done
Now am I just a fading face?
I read between the lines, just should've closed my eyes
And I'm moving on
But the silence is deafening
No love left behind
A temporary ghost inside your mind

Fleeting
Bleeding
Leave me
Haunted

It's clear were done
Now am I just a fading face?
I read between the lines, just should've closed my eyes
And I'm moving on
But the silence is deafening
No love left behind
A temporary ghost inside your mind
