You can’t find the real thing That’s your favorite thing to say I listen to how you talk And the words that you thought you couldn’t save
You shout out the first thing That I thought you’d understate It’s a lesson in how you caught All the friends you run across and interchange
Outside of friends who don’t remember your name There’s not a single one It’s good to fantasize on the things you’d say You’re not a friend at all
You’re making a big show Of a tiny fiction They may not believe you But don’t be afraid Now that I gave you what you wanted They may not trust you But that’s the price you pay
You faded into darkness Into dark, into dark, into dark, into dark, into dark You faded into darkness Into dark, into dark, into dark, into dark, into dark
You shout out the first thing That I thought you’d understate It’s a lesson in how you talk And the words you run across and interchange
Outside of friends who won’t remember your name There’s not a single one It’s good to fantasize on the things you’d say You’re not a friend at all
You faded into darkness Into dark, into dark, into dark, into dark, into dark You faded into darkness Into dark, into dark, into dark, into dark, into dark
Now that I gave you what you wanted But it’s the price you pay
You’re making a big show Of a tiny fiction They may not believe you But don’t be afraid Now that I gave you what you wanted They may not trust you But that’s the price you pay
You faded into dark Into dark, into dark, into dark, into dark You faded into dark Into dark, into dark, into dark, into dark You faded into dark
