The Always Never project – and the origin of the duo’s name – centres around the theme of contradiction, which is reflected in their songwriting. They draw inspiration from real life experiences, particularly relationships – especially when those in relationships let you down. People who are Always, yet Never, there.
Fade Away
Always Never Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
You got your blood on my walls
No-one asked where you were
′Cause it's been way too long
And all of their sympathy has faded away
To face your depravity is the price you pay
Oh, babe
And I′m on, on a wave
Goddamn, I ain't seein' straight
It′s a little fuckin′ late to be sorry 'bout your ways
God, I′d love to fuckin' fade away
No problems if I fade away
And I say it just because I don′t really mean it, but
If push came to shove, oh
I'd find a way to fade away
I′ll find a way to fade away
I'll find a way to fade away
I'll find a way to fade away
I′ll find a way to fade away
I′ll find a way to fade away
I'll find a way to fade away
I′ll find a way to fade, find a way to fade
Been talking kind of dark lately
I'm a little fuckin′ sad now
It's like I have no heart, baby
And no-one left the lights on
Maybe it′s the seasons changing
But it's probably my past though
So I'ma take another shot
And another shot
And another shot
′Til I don′t remember anymore
In these lyrics, Always Never is talking about a tumultuous relationship that has gone wrong. The singer talks about how someone "crashed through my door" and got their "blood on my walls." This could symbolize the way that the other person has forced themselves into the singer's life and caused a mess. They note that "no-one asked where you were" because it has been so long, indicating that the relationship has been rocky for a while.
Furthermore, "all of their sympathy has faded away" as they have witnessed the problems in the relationship. This may be a sign of the people around them becoming tired of the drama and wanting to distance themselves from it. The singer acknowledges that "to face your depravity is the price you pay" for being in this type of relationship. They then express the desire to "fade away" and escape the situation.
The second half of the lyrics focus on the singer's own emotions and struggles. They describe being in an Uber and feeling disoriented and regretful. They express a desire to "fade away" again and say that there would be "no problems if I fade away." This could mean that they wish they could disappear and escape from their problems without facing any repercussions.
Overall, this song seems to be about a toxic relationship and the desire to escape from it. The singer is struggling with their own emotions and trying to find a way out.
