Fading Fast 5

Verse

Your name still lives in the station's play

Summer static, static gray

Radio waves that never fade

Just me still driving what we made

Gasoline on a rusted gate

Tape worn thin from playing late

Stars erased but the spark remains

Fading fast like summer rain

Pre-Chorus

So I'm keeping the miles on my dashboard low

Burning every mile before it goes cold

Chorus

We were fading fast, like a sunset in '92

Colors bleeding into blue

Still driving your ghost in the passenger seat

Fading fast but I won't stop the beat

Verse 2

Old photographs turned yellow at the seam

Saltwater kisses, saltwater dreams

Empty beach chair still holding heat

Washed up on a winter street

Sirens humming like a song that's lost

Neon signs out, one by one crossed

I keep your jacket folded in my glove box

Proof that we existed and it was enough

Pre-Chorus

So I'm keeping the miles on my dashboard low

Burning every mile before it goes cold

Chorus

We were fading fast, like a sunset in '92

Colors bleeding into blue

Still driving your ghost in the passenger seat

Fading fast but I won't stop the beat

Bridge

Maybe endings are just beginnings in disguise

Rust belt road with no rearview mirror eyes

I'm not scared of fading if it's still alive

Just a spark in a match that refuses to die

Chorus

We were fading fast, like a sunset in '92

Colors bleeding into blue

Still driving your ghost in the passenger seat

Fading fast but I won't stop the beat
