Artist/Band: Sloan
Lyrics for Song: Fading Into Obscurity
Lyrics for Album: Never Hear The End Of It [2006]



So many stories I can tell

I had the world under my spell

Does this even ring a bell

I wonder because

Don't you know who I was



Interest in me dissipated

All my methods antiquated

I've been cast away

Lost and friendless today



I made a name for myself

When one could do such a thing

A reputation that's held

Together by string

And so I chose to cherish those who think there's some purity

To fading into obscurity



What works on paper

Has the tendency to ride on vapor

Sometimes what's not to love

But then other times what's to like



I'm unable to tell if I know who I am

A modest success

A shill or a sham

I'm not afraid of what I'm made of

But my trajectory

Has me fading into obscurity



You kids'll have to fend for yourselves



Because your mother's gone and as for the elves

Who used to do all the work around here

Well they're not gonna do it anymore



You kids can kiss your mother goodbye

And I'll give you twenty minutes to cry

She used to do all the work around here

But she's not gonna do it anymore



And you're getting to old to be cared for

By me

And for that matter

This cake is baked but I much prefer the batter

Perhaps in part because it had so much potential

To be delicious and still be influential



I'm undecided

If the evidence that I've provided

Explains what I mean

It's too late now, cause I can't see or be seen

And I know you'd only shrug through my tears

So I'm not gonna shed them anymore

Out of favour with the flavour of the week's where I'll be

And fading into obscurity

An outsider, but in good company

Oh, yeah

I'm fading into obscurity

Da da da da

I'm undecided
