Faded (Apple Music Home Session) Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh yeah

[Chorus]
I'm faded, I'm faded
I'm not sure if I can make it, oh
But don't you cry for
Honey, I'm not worth it
Honey, I'm not worth it
Honey, I'm not worth it
Don't you cry for
Me
Me
Me
Don't you cry for—

[Verse 1]
Yeah, I'm skippin' through the days to come home
A million conversations, autopilot, stay afloat
I'm on one one-man mission, eyes down, take note
I never liked you, stay away from me, don't rock the boat
This is the great escape from everythin' I've ever hated
From all this figurin' this life shit that got me jaded
Faded all the time, the doubtin' got me underrated
This is my mechanism, movin' forward, isolated
Belated, superficial gestures of a phoney type
I come alive when I'm incarcerated late at night
I wish that I could leave the soul destruction every night
That I could regress in an able-bodied prototype
If that made sense I'd leave him here to handle lesser business
I'm immaterial but I still got things on a wish list
That's desire, can't you hear it in my C+ English?
I'd love the finer things, but that's not bein' realistic
Ballistic, everybody goes when I'm singin'
I'm sick of singin' pain so I'm free, broke and wingin'
It comin' out my heart purer than the way I'm livin'
Maybe I'll see you, or maybe I'll just give in
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, it's just too much now that I'm all grown up
I've been dragged through the dirt, now I should be blowin' up
Still I'm blowin', still I'm blowin'
Still I don't know where the hell I should be goin'
So I guess it's just live like this 'til my mind goes snap
No love, no drug could ever fill this gap
Yeah, I live for the high 'til it all floods back
Like the tears of the years I can't get back

[Chorus]
I'm faded, I'm faded
I'm not sure if I can make it, oh
But don't you cry for
Honey, I'm not worth it
Honey, I'm not worth it
Honey, I'm not worth it
Don't you cry for
Me
Me
Me
Don't you cry for—

[Outro]
Don't cry for me, darling
Don't cry for me, darling
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry for me, darling
Don't cry for me, darling
Don't cry for me, darling
Don't cry for me, darling
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry for me, darling
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry
Don't cry, don't cry
Honey, I'm not worth it
Honey, I'm not worth it
Yeah, yeah
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry
Yeah, don't cry for me, darling
Don't cry, don't cry
Don't cry, yeah, yeah
