To Never Fade

We'd spend our lives discussing how our days were slowly fleeting

Oh I thought you were much stronger then with the madness never ending

I have never found the words for you seems no matter how I've tried

All the smiles that you gave, were they all just times you lied?

In another time, another cityscape behind

I could sing a different song

You could live a different life

Like an inscription in my brain

My thoughts will never be the same

You left a tattoo on my heart

With the memories engraved

To never fade

Now I'm vaguely reminiscent of a man you almost knew

You took the path of least resistance and I swear this much to you

You have never left my thoughts and now I'm sure you never will

When you arrived at your comfort station did you hear that whippoorwill?

In another time, another cityscape behind

I could sing a different song

You could live a different life

Like an inscription in my brain

My thoughts will never be the same

You left a tattoo on my heart

With the memories engraved

To never fade

The strength that showed all the pain you hid

And on those darkest August nights

The stars you left behind will never fail to shine

Like an inscription in my brain

My thoughts will never be the same

You left a tattoo on my heart

With the memories engraved

Like an inscription in my brain

My thoughts will never be the same

You left a tattoo on my heart

With the memories engraved

To never fade

To never fade

To never fade

To never fade
