Could’ve let me know
That our time here was fleeting
It’s all faded black
There’s no going back
To the place we knew
It’s all faded black
There’s no going back
To the place I once believed in
I bite my nails when I’m walking home
Cuz it helps when I’m grieving
Fooled me twice I feel betrayed
Don’t have to understand
Doctor says it’s all in my head
I take the pills can’t go back to bed
Because I think of everything
And I’m mourning all the words unsaid
How was I supposed to know?
It’s all faded black
There’s no going back
To the place we knew
It’s all faded black
There’s no going back
To the world we knew
Free of fear
Playing with our hearts like kids
Like we’ll never age
Like we’ll be whole again
It’s all faded black
There’s no going back
I held my tongue for far too long
Till my lungs started bleeding
Let you feed on me so you’d feel strong
Till my health was depleting
Doctor says you’re bad for my head
I need the pills to get out of bed
Could’ve left me on the train
Could’ve told me things weren’t the same
Cuz how was I supposed to know?
It’s all faded black
There’s no going back
To the place we knew
It’s all faded black
There’s no going back
To the world we knew
Free of fear
Playing with our hearts like kids
Like we’ll never age
Like we’ll be whole again
There’s no going back
There’s no going back
