You fade away, fade to grey
Fade to all of these shades
When sunshine and rain
Smile at the cracks
And you smile for their hacks
And you're smiling through these days
In an addict's haze
And you climb on the wall
And you're not afraid of fall
You're scared you'll throw yourself
Over the edge of it all
You prayed for years
And you buried your fears
Now didn't your mother tell you
We'd all end in tears

You, lie beside me
You, lie in spite of me

You show break face
And your silver lace
And sugar and spice
And you're hiding your vice
And you're star in my sight
And you're thorn in the sky
And out damn spot
Is the one you forgot to lose

You're over the wall
And you're not afraid of fall
You're scared you'll throw yourself
Over the edge of it all
You prayed for years
And you buried your fears
Now didn't your mother tell you
We'd all end in tears for..

You, lie beside me
You, lie in spite of me
You, you, lost in twenty-something
Lost in twenty-something
Lost in twenty-something
Lost in twen-ty-some-thing

You, lie beside me
You, you lie in spite of me
You, lie beside me
You, You, you lie in spite of me
In spite of me, twenty-something
