"Fade" Lyrics

Find myself picking up the pieces of me that you discarded
So this is what they talk about when they say "broken-hearted"
Thought I was a together kind of person, the type who had a handle
As fate would have it I'm exploding like a roman candle

And it's pretty in the sky
Such a beautiful way to die
But I want my sparkle back
Why does it always fade to black?

I thought that ignition meant the beginning of something
Really got me going and let me fizzle to nothing
You could have had anything you wanted from me, I'm a catch
I looked up to you so much, it's a shame you never noticed that

And it's pretty in the sky
Such a beautiful way to die
But I want my sparkle back
Why does it always fade to black?

We never said goodbye
At least you don't get to see me cry, cry, cry
At least you don't get to see me cry...

Did you mean to blow me up
I just wanted to be loved
Did you mean to blow me up
I just wanted to be loved
Did you mean to blow me up
I just wanted to be loved loved loved
I just wanted to be loved loved loved
I just wanted to be loved loved loved
I just wanted to be loved loved loved...

And it's pretty in the sky
Such a beautiful way to die
But I want my sparkle back
Why does it always fade to black?
