"Faded" lyrics

Faded, faded
So far away as I disappear in the dark

You never take, take the time to really look
Look at the one, the one I really am
You try to fit, to fit me in a perfect box
You let me slip between the cracks

Now, I'm faded into someone else
Baby, someone I don't wanna be
Yeah, I'm faded. My true color's gone
Like a picture nobody sees

I bet you don't, don't even know my favorite song
You tell me how, how I should wear my hair
You wanna change everything I ever was
Wanna erase me 'til I'm not there

Now, I'm faded into someone else
Baby, someone I don't wanna be
Yeah, I'm faded. My true color's gone
Like a picture nobody sees

Now I'm faded, like I never was
'Til I don't even know myself
Yeah, I'm faded into what you want
But I'm not taking it too well

I don't wanna be your little picture-perfect pretty girl who's got nothing to say
And I don't wanna wait around for you to run my whole life down and let you watch me fade away

You try to fit, to fit me in your perfect box
You let me slip between the cracks

Now, I'm faded into someone else
Baby, someone I don't wanna be
Yeah, I'm faded. My true color's gone
Like a picture nobody sees

Now, I'm faded like I never was
'Til I don't even know myself
Yeah, I'm faded into what you want
But I'm not taking it too well

Faded, faded
I'm slipping away as I disappear in the dark
Yeah, I'm faded, faded
I'm so far away from who I was at the start

Yeah, I'm faded, faded
I'm slipping away as I disappear in the dark
Yeah, I'm faded, faded
I'm so far away from who I was at the start
