Gravel Switch - Fate

Am I staring in the eyes
Of a life that I can't have?
Am I searching for the chance
That has already passed?
Is the light burning dim
On the smile that keeps me strong?
I can feel this fading away
Guess I knew it all along

And now I'm drifting and falling and slipping farther away
Believing, conceiving this sweet daze
And I know I can't control our fate
And I'm wondering if I've waited to late

And now I'm burning inside
Inflicting this fate on myself
I can feel that inside your mind
I'm standing behind someone else
I don't understand your signs
Am I reading them all the wrong way?
Guess I've just wasted my time
In this fable I live everyday

And now I'm drifting and falling and slipping farther away
Believing, conceiving this sweet daze
And I know I can't control our fate
And I'm wondering if I've waited to late

And now I'm drifting and falling and slipping farther away
Believing, conceiving this sweet daze
And I know I can't control our fate
And I'm wondering if I've waited to late
