Fade - Sleater-Kinney

When the last strip of light is dimming

When the spotlight starts to fade

If there’s no tomorrow

You better live

All of the roles that we played

Hit your mark, push the walls, stretch the stage

Oh, what a price that we paid

My dearest nightmare, my conscience, the end

Unbelievable masquerade

Never revealing your truth

Deeper inside that mask you made

Losing the face of you

Tell me what do you see in the last script

Yeah it’s a trip, what’s it all for?

If we are truly dancing our swan song, darling

Shake it like never before

All of the roles that we played

Hit your mark, push the walls, stretch the stage

Oh, what a price that we paid

My dearest nightmare, my conscience, the end

Oh what a price that we paid

My dearest nightmare, my conscience, the end
