Pardon me for being frank
I've cried an ocean over folks who were no kin to me
Mending dreams of picket fences
My offence is I've got optimistic tendencies
Hearing my emotions screaming out loud and clear
But they don't play fair, fair
Was I ever really sure?
Lie to me
Tell me, was I insecure?
Remind me
I've been searching for some reassurance
Guide me
Tell me, what was all this for?
For, for
The more we try to hold this together
We break from the pressure
We fade from the pleasure
The more we try to hold this together
We break from the pressure
We fade from the pleasure
We fade
(Ooh, ooh)
I was alright when things started
Better off not thinking this could save me
Driving down a dead-end road regardless
Can't ignore all the stop signs
Didn't notice 'til it got heavy
Every time we settle, it's the same thing
Said we could see past the problems
We tried
Was I ever really sure?
Lie to me
Tell me, was I insecure?
Remind me
I've been searching for some reassurance (I've been searching)
Guide me
Tell me, what was all this for?
For, for
The more we try to hold this together
We break from the pressure
We fade from the pleasure
The more we try to hold this together
We break from the pressure
We fade from the pleasure
We fade
We fade
We fade
Ah, yeah
Ooh
We fade, we fade, we fade
