Watch Me Fade Lyrics

Here's hoping that the end won't come without us

Here's hoping that the end won't come at all

Here's hoping that we get to where we're going

Here's hoping we land wherever we fall

I tried writing my name into the water

I tried chiseling it into the stone

I found strength in the company of others

Freedom in carrying the weight alone

And I realized that the first version's a fake

And the decision that will follow is a mistake

I've lived with or without extreme confidence or doubt

God knows we're still trying to figure it out

We tried to make the most of being 20

We tried to make the most of being 25

And after that the years they just kept on coming

Another decade gone and we are still alive

And I've realized the first drafts are painful

But the second draft is really someone else

And while I've tried to say the same thing since forever

I always end up saying something else

So here's what I have been trying to tell you

I'm afraid that we'll all die and it will end

And every song that we've left unfinished

Will just disappear in one another's heads
