Fading Away
I think I'm fading away
I think I'm falling out the picture and crawling down from the frame
Give me a few more months before you forget my name
Or the place we met
Am I one to forget?
I think I'm fading away
I think I'm fading away
More often I am finding less and less to say
Punctuated by the silence, I abstain from all
The ways you try to be cool
Always verging on cruel
I can't hear my mouth
My words are drenched in doubt
There are things I'd like to say
But they always slip away
Again
As I fade again
Away again
I fade again
I think I'm fading away
I've become impertinent and fear my words will stay
Strangled in obscurity 'cuz one cannot be
Great and stay comfortable
Success always stems from struggle
I can hear my mouth
My words still filled with doubt
But all the things I want to say
Come pouring out anyway
Again
As I fade again
Slip away again
I fade again
Our last vestige of youth
Alluring us and eluding us
I'm alluding to the delusion that I still need you
