[Verse 1:] Say I won't forget something that no one knows Diffuse the day again Say that I'll be fine, I'll step on no ones toes But every now and then The ribbons cut with rusty blades (Just a minor imperfection) And what should be a golden age (Starts to waver on its axis) [Chorus:] Crash, burn, don't fade away Those days are gone, we said so long Covered wagons carry on You'll never see a cloudy day Crash, burn, don't fade away [Verse 2:] Say that I don't need you when I couldn't resist I'm underneath your spell Reaching for a place where you and I can exist But only time will tell Far across the fertile plains (There's a golden age a brewing) Conestoga wagon train (Prone to recklessness and ruin) [Chorus:] Crash, burn, don't fade away Fade away, fade away Those days are gone, we said so long Covered wagons carry on Trojan horses, instant replay Crash, burn, don't fade away Those days are gone, we said so long The check is in the mail, right on You'll never see a cloudy day Crash, burn, don't fade away
