Faded / We The People

[Part I: Faded]

[Verse 1]
Never thought that I could love you
That’s why I told you so
Never thought I would need you
Until I saw you walk away
Now my heart hurts in those ways I said I’d never hurt again
Damn
Let’s go back when we were friends cause I don’t like these benefits
Damn
And you can’t make me stay if I don’t want to, maybe I’ll die alone
You can’t make me stay if I don’t want to, maybe I’ll die alone
Running from these feelings, give me anything but truth and I will take it
Rumors spinning baby fill me up again, much as I can’t [?]

[Chorus]
And I may not feel a thing cause I’m faded
When I’m woke it’s too vivid, turn it off for a minute
And I may not feel a thing cause I’m faded
When I’m woke it’s too vivid, turn it off for a minute
And I may not feel a thing
And I may not feel a thing
And I may not feel a thing cause I’m faded
When I’m woke it’s too vivid, turn it off for a minute
Cause I’m faded

[Verse 2]
All I know is dysfunction or functions
Movement and crew through the views of abuse
Screaming and punching, scheming and cussing
Absorbed so deep in a conscience
Seen damaged
Blackout things vanished
Examined lockdown
Seem managed
Can’t function
Distant to paint anguish
Faded, twisted beyond jaded

[Verse 3]
I panic when vulnerable
Feel un-loveable
I’m trouble
Don’t mean to trouble you
Need space
And a space shuttle too
Untouchable
Inside a bubble suit
Can’t name it
Mind games I’m playing
Vacant
Telling you I’m staying
You hoping
Open while I’m praying
Drifting, twisted beyond faded

[Chorus]
And I may not feel a thing cause I’m faded
When I’m woke it’s too vivid, turn it off for a minute
And I may not feel a thing cause I’m faded
When I’m woke it’s too vivid, turn it off for a minute
And I may not feel a thing
And I may not feel a thing
And I may not feel a thing cause I’m faded
When I’m woke it’s too vivid, turn it off for a minute
Cause I’m faded
