I stand behind these lies
While I fall apart inside 
There's no one to tell me why 
Did I ever close my eyes to see？ 

Colours seem to fade 
To this melancholy state 
Who says what am I to change？ 
Did I ever take the time to breathe？ 

Can you keep me in the dark 
And never let me see 
The light can be so much worse 

And I feel it slip away 
One last good memory 
Our time has come and gone 

I'm fading away 

A little bit closer 
To that moment 
I'm standing next to you 
But I know 
How this story will unfold 

A litte bit farther 
Till I'm caught up 
To what I'm running from 
But I know the end 
It always ends with you 

Try to hold onto the pain 
The one thing that won't change 
It's keeping me grounded 

And the one reality 
Starts slipping away 
And crumbles all around me 

I'm fading away 

A little bit closer 
To that moment 
I'm standing next to you 
But I know 
How this story will unfold 

I stand behind these lies 
While I fall apart inside 
There's no one to tell me why 
Did I ever close my eyes to see？ 

Colours seem to fade 
To this melancholy state 
Who says what am I to change？ 

A little bit closer 
To that moment 
I'm standing next to you 
But I know 
How this story will unfold 

A little bit jaded 
Can't take it 
There's only one way out 
So I know the end 
It always ends with you
