Faded

I don't remember you much my doll
But I still can feel the pain

Your face faded in the hands of time
But people want to know
Will I still bring up your name?

When it doesn't do much good to cry
When all they do is question why
This may haunt me till the day I die

And I can't afford this shame.

Someone turn back the hands of time
Pretend the world is a pretty design

We're not through with this pantomime
I want back everything that's mine.
