[Chorus]
Straight, no chaser
We don't waste our time on fakeness
One glass, one shot is all it takes us
Better this than fade away
Fade away
[Verse 1]
So, our story goes: This empty city
Crowded skies are clearing but I'm lonesome, lonesome
No! Bring on the night, there's work a plenty
Fluorescent lamps are passing in slow motion
Only I will wander
Only I can leave
[Chorus]
Straight, no chaser
We don't waste our time on fakeness
One glass, one shot is all it takes us
Better this than fade away
Oh, fade away
[Verse 2]
So, we set the scene: A sea of faces
Laser eyes are watching as we close in, close in
Don't play innocent, I know you're thinking
You're chasing conversation out of focus
Only I will wander
Only I can leave
[Chorus]
Straight, no chaser
We don't waste our time on fakeness, no
One glass, one shot is all it takes us
Better this than fade away
Oh, fade away
[Chorus]
Straight, no chaser
We don't waste our time on fakeness, oh
One glass, one shot is all it takes us
Better this than fade away
Fade away
Fade away
[Outro]
Fade away
