Slow Fade

Lyrics

I was living a lie Said I was doing just fine That was until you asked me It seems that you have a way Of going where I'm afraid Where it's sad and lonely I keep licking my wounds But it fails to Stem the bleeding I can't look at myself I need help 'cause The mirror's cracking I'd better wake up Start to see things And smash the new day If I don't stop soon Then I'll speed to The slow fade Answers I couldn't bare To questions I wouldn't dare But needed asking The truth was buried inside As I slowly died I marched on sleepwalking I keep licking my wounds But it fails to Stem the bleeding I can't look at myself I need help 'cause The mirror's cracking I'd better wake up Start to see things And smash the new day If I don't stop soon Then I'll speed to The slow fade I need to pry my eyes And not sleep through Bells are ringing 'Cause there's so much more to do I can play the long game And still live life Fear is no way to live And a sure way to die I keep licking my wounds But it fails to Stem the bleeding I can't look at myself I need help 'cause The mirror's cracking I'd better wake up Start to see things And smash the new day If I don't stop soon Then I'll speed to The slow fade
