Fade

Sometimes I feel my existence dwindle Did I achieve what was my life’s purpose Or is it just I’m getting too old And my dream of life remains unsold Vanishing light lets in creeping dark A shadow stealthy covering my glow Am I something you no longer see A stranger in the place of a youthful me Is my time up or will I have more to come I haven’t finishing making this house a home I got too comfortable Playing it safe without trying to be remarkable I took down the clocks so long ago A key for the grim reaper I don’t want to disappear Dying I can’t face, it’s my biggest fear Fade out of time Fade out of light Fade out of trace Fade out of faith Fade out of time
