Fade to Nothing
Rag'n'Bone Man Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Think that I'll be around
When you make your mind up
With your feet on solid ground
I could be anyone, anyone
As long as you got every single thing you want
Think you'll be running this show all alone
How many times can we put ourselves through this war
Like all the lovers that have been here before?
How many times can we watch this fade into nothing?
No nothing, no nothing at all
Woohoo woohoo woo
Woohoo woohoo woo
Woohoo woohoo woo
Woohoo woohoo woo
Don't ask for my opinion
You can't face the truth
Everytime I leave myself open
You line me up to lose
I could be anyone, anyone
As long as you got every single thing you want
Think you'll be running this show all alone
That's where you got me wrong
How many times can we put ourselves through this war
Like all the lovers that have been here before?
How many times can we watch this fade into nothing?
No nothing, no nothing at all
Woohoo woohoo woo
Woohoo woohoo woo
Woohoo woohoo woo
Woohoo woohoo woo
Why do we sit and suffer
Through our darkest days?
It's time we play it over
We make the same mistakes
And that's where we got this wrong
How many times can we put ourselves through this war
Like all the lovers that have been here before?
How many times can we watch this fade into nothing?
No nothing, no nothing at all
Woohoo woohoo woo
Woohoo woohoo woo
Woohoo woohoo woo
Woohoo woohoo woo
Woohoo woohoo woo
Woohoo woohoo woo
Woohoo woohoo woo
Woohoo woohoo woo
In the song "Fade to Nothing" by Rag'n'Bone Man, the lyrics appear to be about a relationship in which one person is constantly making selfish decisions, while the other constantly suffers the consequences. The opening lines "Don't you be so foolish, think that I'll be around / When you make your mind up, with your feet on solid ground" seem to be addressed to the other person in the relationship, warning them not to continue taking their partner for granted. The chorus repeats the question "How many times can we put ourselves through this war?" suggesting that they have been in this situation multiple times before and are unsure whether they can take it anymore.
The second verse takes a more confrontational tone, with the singer declaring "Don't ask for my opinion, you can't face the truth / Every time I leave myself open, you line me up to lose". The repeated line "I could be anyone, anyone / As long as you got every single thing you want" suggests that the person they are addressing only cares about their own needs and is willing to sacrifice their partner's happiness to meet them.
The final verse seems to be a plea to break the cycle, with the lines "Why do we sit and suffer through our darkest days? / It's time we play it over, we make the same mistakes / And that's where we got this wrong". The song ends on a note of uncertainty, with the repeated "woohoo" refrain suggesting that despite the plea for change, they may be doomed to repeat their mistakes.
Line by Line Meaning
Don't you be so foolish
Do not act in a thoughtless or reckless manner
Think that I'll be around
Believe that I will always be present in your life
When you make your mind up
When you come to a firm decision about something
With your feet on solid ground
With a firm understanding of your situation
I could be anyone, anyone
I am interchangeable and replaceable in your life
As long as you got every single thing you want
As long as you are satisfied and have everything you desire
Think you'll be running this show all alone
Believe that you are in control and can handle everything alone
That's where you got me wrong
You are mistaken about my willingness to be controlled and manipulated
How many times can we put ourselves through this war
How many times can we subject ourselves to this emotional conflict
Like all the lovers that have been here before?
Like all the couples who have gone through similar struggles in the past
How many times can we watch this fade into nothing?
How many times can we see our relationship slowly deteriorate and fail
No nothing, no nothing at all
There will be no love or relationship left in the end
Don't ask for my opinion
Do not request my viewpoint or insight
You can't face the truth
You are unable or unwilling to confront the reality of a situation
Everytime I leave myself open
Whenever I make myself vulnerable or honest
You line me up to lose
You take advantage of my openness and use it against me
Why do we sit and suffer
Why do we endure pain and sadness
Through our darkest days?
During the most difficult and trying times in our relationship
It's time we play it over
It is time to move on and start anew
We make the same mistakes
We repeat the same errors and missteps in our relationship
And that's where we got this wrong
That is where we made a mistake and went astray in our relationship

Don't you be so foolish
Think that i'll be around
When you made your mind up
With your feed on solid ground
I could be anyone, anyone
As long as you are every single thing you want
Think you can run in there
Sure all along
That's where you got me wrong
How many times can we put ourselves through this world
Like all the lovers that been here before
How many times can we watch this fade into nothing
No nothing, no nothing at all
Don't ask for my opinion
You can face the truth
Everytime I leave myself open
You lie on me to lose
I could be anyone, anyone
As long as you are every single thing you want
Think you can run in there
Sure all along
That's where you got me where wrong
How many times can we put ourselves through this world
Like all the lovers thar been here before
How many times can we watch this fade into nothing
No nothing, no nothing at all
Why do we sit and suffer
Through our darkest days
It's time we play it over
We make the same mistakes
And that's where we got this wrong
How many times can we put ourselves through this world
Like all the lovers that been here before
How many times can we watch this fade into nothing
No nothing, no nothing at all
