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

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

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

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

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

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
Fade away
