Memories Are Designed to Fade

[Verse 1]
I'd never let you down, when you're in a fix
I'd come running when you call
That's my weakness, baby
So connected are we
You get your kicks from the ghost of a memory
So busy turning away from reality, baby
That you just won't let go

[Chorus]
But memories fade
Yeah, they're designed that way

[Verse 2]
But you're so wrapped up in her you don't see straight
Watch her mangle the truth while you take the bait
(Can't you see?) So tell her, can't you see? (Can't you see?)
You're just turning yourself inside out for no need

[Verse 3]
This thing you're using is worse than a photograph
It picks you up and turns you inside you now, baby
And you just won't let go

[Chorus]
And memories fade
Yeah, they're designed that way

[Verse 4]
She doesn't love you anymore
Maybe she did long ago
You're just a slave to the grind, that she grew tired of, baby
(Can't you see?) So tell her, can't you see? (Can't you see?)
You're just turning yourself inside out for no need

[Chorus]
But memories fade
Yeah, they're designed that way

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
She doesn't love you anymore
Maybe she did long ago
You're just a slave to the grind, that she grew tired of, baby
(Can't you see?) So tell her, can't you see? (Can't you see?)
You're just turning yourself
You're just turning yourself inside out for no need (Can't you see?)
You're just turning yourself inside out for no need
