Fade Away Lyrics

Leaving your house one stormy night was such a cruel dilemma

When all I wanted was to stay inside

So I could remember

All the cracks and all the holes

In your walls

I couldn't bear to try and stare as I walked away

The dove flew in without me knowing

But it didn't stay

Just passed me by, took to the sky

In the blink of an eye

Did you look back?

Did you look back?

Or did I just fade away?

Lay on my bed, hands to my chest

And watched the dust collecting

But I felt my nerves getting worse as I started forgetting

I got some air to clear my head

But it didn't clear a thing

I called the line so many times

More than you would believe

Fear settled in, I packed my things

And I got up to leave

You were just across the road

Or so it seemed

And as I opened my eyes

To my surprise

Came through the back, and there you sat

With no more life inside you

I Shook you for what seemed like months before I realised you

Couldn't speak another word

They took your soul

As I went home

I felt your ghost

Follow close behind me

And to this day

It's still always floating right beside me

Speaking words you never got to say before

Did you look back?

Did you look back?

Or did I just fade away?
