Fading Light
Faded light in my hand growing dim can't pretend,
As the light slips away, in the dark here I stay.
And I know that you're here, in the dark it's not clear,
But I feel what you feel, your emotions reveal.
How i am what you crave, your desires can't save.
All around, all around, in your grasp I'm not found.
Looking through shattered glass at nothingness,
Locked inside an empty room there's nowhere to hide.
Fading light...
Laying limp on the ground, as your body surrounds.
Then I see in your eyes, the glow of despise.
Pull me close hold me tight, in my mind it's not right,
To my heart, to my heart, you know I can't part.
Looking through shattered glass at nothingness,
Locked inside an empty room there's nowhere to hide.
Fading light...
Here I sit in this place, let the darkness erase.
Cause me pain, show me hate, laying here in this state.
In this dark the absence of light, love with flicker if you ignite.
Here I lay on my own, turn off the lights and welcome you home.
Looking through shattered glass at nothingness,
Locked inside an empty room there's nowhere to hide.
Fading light...
Fading light...
