Lyrics

A Fadeaway

She’s leaving home
She’s got business to do
She’s leaving her child
Though he’s only two
He’s a fadeaway
Oh, a fadeaway

The front she put up
The illusion she built
Comes crumbling down
Shattered by guilt
She’s a fadeaway
Oh, a fadeaway

The closer you get
The less you can see
Did it really happen?
It’s just a half-memory
It’s a fadeaway
Oh, a fadeaway

New technologies
Beyond cyberspace
But walk ‘round your block
And see our culture decay
It’s a fadeaway
Oh, a fadeaway
