Fade
Aeon Station Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The dreams grow old and waste away
The truth will lie or seem unclear
The pain can change or disappear
All that you know believe to be true goes wrong
Oh
A night nowhere near where we were
Wishing all the world would fall around our feet
We need to leave tonight for the life we want to lead and
So goodbye to fear
It's time to disappear to the unknown
Be on our own
Today is the day we are finally free of pretending
To be something we never wanted
It kept us from dreaming and leaving it behind us
It's all in our reach now so just take my hand, won't you?
No matter the road you're on, you fall at times
The weight of life can pull you under
But have faith, get up, don't fall apart
Keep all your strength deep in your heart
You're more than what you ever wanted
More than what you know
Day after day, it appears we are more than
We ever believed we could be when it's ours to
Sing from your chains and go over and louder
To drown out the noise of the ones who will hate you
And tear at your feelings and keep you to limits
I'll never compete with the best you can be
With all of your ships, you can't captain
Will one day come back to a glorious meaning
Revealing the one you were meant to be all of the time
Send out your doves to the ravens like lightning to darkness
An endless repeat of you want me
And I want your love to go over the oceans
Countless and counting like one, two, three, one, two, three
Searching in patterns that signal a fate we agree
Is designed by the stars for just you and me
You and me, you and me, you and me, you and me

This life you make is bound to fade
The life you create for yourself is temporary and will eventually come to an end
The dreams grow old and waste away
Your aspirations and desires become less vibrant and eventually lose their value
The truth will lie or seem unclear
The truth can be distorted or difficult to discern
The pain can change or disappear
Suffering can transform or vanish
All that you know believe to be true goes wrong
Everything that you think is certain and true can unexpectedly fail
A night nowhere near where we were
A time in the past that is distant and far from our current state
Remembering the parts of a dream we can't repeat
Recalling fragments of a dream that cannot be recreated
Wishing all the world would fall around our feet
Desiring a radical change where everything around us collapses and submits
We need to leave tonight for the life we want to lead
It is necessary for us to depart immediately towards the existence we desire
So goodbye to fear
We are bidding farewell to our fears
It's time to disappear to the unknown
The moment has come to vanish into unfamiliar territories
Be on our own
We will be self-reliant and independent
Today is the day we are finally free of pretending
This day marks the liberation from pretending to be someone we aren't
To be something we never wanted
To embody a role or identity that was never our true desire
It kept us from dreaming and leaving it behind us
It prevented us from dreaming and moving on from that falsehood
It's all in our reach now so just take my hand, won't you?
Our aspirations are within our grasp, so please accept my offer of support
No matter the road you're on, you fall at times
Regardless of the path you choose, you will experience moments of failure
The weight of life can pull you under
The burdens of existence can overwhelm and submerge you
But have faith, get up, don't fall apart
Maintain belief, rise again, and don't disintegrate emotionally
Keep all your strength deep in your heart
Preserve your resilience and fortitude within the depths of your being
You're more than what you ever wanted
You possess qualities and potential beyond your own desires
More than what you know
You exceed your current understanding of yourself
Day after day, it appears we are more than
Continuously, it becomes evident that we are greater than
We ever believed we could be when it's ours to
What we have the power to become surpasses our previous expectations
Sing from your chains and go over and louder
Vocally express your liberation from the constraints and rise even stronger
To drown out the noise of the ones who will hate you
To overpower the criticisms and negativity of those who despise you
And tear at your feelings and keep you to limits
Who tear into your emotions and confine you within boundaries
I'll never compete with the best you can be
I will never vie with the superior version of yourself
With all of your ships, you can't captain
Even with numerous opportunities, you cannot be the leader of your own journey
Will one day come back to a glorious meaning
One day, it will return with a significant and magnificent purpose
Revealing the one you were meant to be all of the time
Unveiling the person you were always intended to become
Send out your doves to the ravens like lightning to darkness
Release your symbols of peace to challenge the malevolent forces that thrive in the shadows
An endless repeat of you want me
An infinite cycle of desiring my presence
And I want your love to go over the oceans
And I yearn for your love to transcend the vast expanses of the oceans
Countless and counting like one, two, three, one, two, three
Innumerable and continuously increasing, akin to a rhythmic pattern
Searching in patterns that signal a fate we agree
Exploring sequences that indicate a destiny we both acknowledge
Is designed by the stars for just you and me
Is intricately crafted by celestial bodies solely for our union
You and me, you and me, you and me, you and me
You and I, inextricably linked, repeatedly emphasized
