Avery Chapman - Fade

Are you still the boy that I kissed
Drunk in the backseat when I was sixteen?
Are you still the boy that I missed
Taught you to fly til you flew past me
Cuz now it's "Hey, how are you?"
You're just fine
It's good to see you
It's been a long time
How's your family been?
Well I'm doing alright if you wanted to know
I cut my hair, got a place on my own
I've been talking to this guy on the internet
He reminds me of you sometimes
And you're dancing in dollars down in LA
Got a few tattoos
Shaking hands with fame
You utter a breath and they scream your name
Yeah they're watching you
And I watch you fade
So tell me where'd he go
With the buzzcut oblivion
Laughing, his arms around me
Oh, and where'd you go?
Now you call, talking small
And the silence is deafening
Yeah it's always,
"Hey how are you? How've you been?"
Then you gotta go but you'll call again
Yeah we play the game
So I'm doing alright if you wanted to know
I grew my hair and I'm living alone
I've been talking to this guy on the internet
But he doesn't make me laugh like you
And you're drowning in dollars down in LA
Got a few tattoos
Getting used to the fame
You utter a breath and they scream your name
Yeah they're watching you
And I watch you fade
I watch you fade
And soon the day will come, inevitably
When I don't recognize you
And you don't remember me
But I'm doing alright
And we can't fight time
So we let this fade
I watch you fade
Yeah we let us fade
Fade
