| 'Round and 'round this broken rat race |
| I’m moving and stopping, I’m window shopping |
| For love, for fame, for anything that would take me |
| And when I’m done taking up space |
| Well I’m coming home late to a dirty place |
| Half awake, the broom, the rake, take the kid out of me |
| Just say the word |
| Just say the word and I’ll give it up |
| The word and I’ll hang it up |
| What do I know? |
| What do I hold? |
| That will not fade away |
| All things fade away |
| Where will I be? |
| The crop and the wheat |
| Feast and fade away |
| All things fade away |
| Putting on a business coat |
| For the tear in the jeans, the hole in the boat |
| To make the burden float, to pay in full this time |
| When you’re living on a dreamer’s salary |
| A broken harvest, feels like robbery |
| What do I do this for, if it’s just gonna pour out easily? |
| You’ve seen me there |
| Climbing the stairs, beggin' for air |
| And not coming up |
| I’m not coming up |
| What do I know? |
| What do I own |
| That will not fade away |
| All things fade away |
| Where will I be? |
| The fruit and the tree |
| Thirst and fade away |
| All things fade away |
| Fade away, fade away |
| All things fade away |
| All things (All things) fade away (Fade away) |
| All things (All things) fade away (Fade away) |
| All things (All things) fade away (Fade away) |
| All things (All things) fade away (Fade away) |
| All things fade away |
| All things |
