Faded Glory

I've seen it all
Long ago, we took the fall
The price of a soul's
Just not what it used to be

Through various highs
I've come to realize
That friendships and loves
Are all that set one free

Time and again
I've needed just a companion
But oh, just how wrong
My image of what one was

How many times -
Endless nights with rambled lines
Lost weekends just to find
The truth wasn't on our minds

But you've heard that before, and -
You don't want to hear no more
It's just the same story
The same old faded glory

You've heard it before, and -
You don't want to hear no more
I'll get by on my faded glory

The loves in my life
Are not worth a price
To retain my freedon
I'll make any sacrifice

I know what it is to crawl
I know how it is to stand tall
I know what it is to warm someone
With heart and hands as cold as ice

But you've heard that before, and -
You don't want to hear no more
It's just the same story
The same old faded glory

You've heard it before, and -
You don't want to hear no more
I'll get by on my faded glory
