Fading Away

I am fading away
From this world

I am slipping away
From everything

I am going away
From the lie I hold

I am fading away
From the truth I was told

Seek me from this nightmare
A hole in my heart is too much for me too bear
The lies you gave me are the things you do not dare
While I am suffering, thinking life is not fair
I can't take it
I can't hold on
I can't endure the pain
I can't do this again

I am fading away, fading away, slipping away now
