Fade Away

Time is an empty bottle

It's another wasted day

Thinking bout' tomorrow

When you could be gone today

It's a broken promise

The words that you don't say

The hammer on the throttle

When you're counting down the days

I guess time, good fortune

And love are all the same

You always think there's more

Until they fade away

So don't hold out on cleaning up

The messes that you've made

Cause your pride won't be worth more

Than another day

When they fade away

Time is the years gone wasted

On the songs you'll never play

The notebooks full of sorrows

You hide them all away

It's the days spent dreaming

On the leaps you'll never take

The steps you haven't taken

When you reach your final days

I guess time, good fortune

And love are all the same

You always think there's more

Until they fade away

So don't hold out on cleaning up

The messes that you've made

Cause your pride won't be worth more

Than another day

When they fade away

When they fade away

I guess time, good fortune

And love are all the same

You always think there's more

Until they fade away

So don't hold out on cleaning up

The messes that you've made

Cause your pride won't be worth more

Than another day

When they fade away
