[Verse 1]
I looked in your eyes
And I didn't see the same you
It wasn't goodbye
But it was the moment I knew (Ooh)

[Pre-Chorus]
You were just going through the motions (Ooh)
You didn't care at all

[Chorus]
You watched me fade away
And left me with your ghost
You just faded away
And left us in the smoke
Why'd you fade away?
Why'd you fade away?

[Verse 2]
I tried to defend you
But all of my friends just shut me up
They say he don't deserve you
But maybe I was never enough (Ooh)

[Pre-Chorus]
You were just going through the motions (Ooh)
You didn't care at all
[Chorus]
You watched me fade away
And left me with your ghost
You just faded away
And left us in the smoke
Why'd you fade away?
Why'd you fade away?

[Bridge]
Watch me take back all the love you don't deserve
You lost me baby and I know you'll start to hurt
When I won't be there when you need somebody like I needed you
I needed you

[Outro]
When you faded away
And left me with your ghost
You just faded away
You put on a good show
Then you fade away
And left me with your ghost
You just faded away
And left us in the smoke
Why'd you fade away?
Oh, why'd you fade away?
