FADE AWAY
Breaking Benjamin/Breaking Benjamin⠀ Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm cold and broken

It's over I didn't want to see it come to this
I wonder if I will ever see your face again
And I know that I will find a way to shed my skin
It's simple I know that I will suffer in the end

Fast I fade away
It's almost over
Hold on
Slow I suffocate
I'm cold and broken
Alone

It's hopeless, the end will come and wash it all away
Forsaken, I live for those I lost along the way
And I can't remember how it all began to break
You suffer, I live to fight and die another day

Fast I fade away
It's almost over
Hold on
Slow I suffocate
I'm cold and broken
Alone

Fast I fade away
It's almost over
Hold on
Slow I suffocate
I'm cold and broken
Alone





I'm cold and broken

Every time we lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven't missed you yet
Every roommate kept awake
By every sigh and scream we make
All the feelings that I get
But I still don't miss you yet
Only when I stop to think about it
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
Every time we lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven't missed you yet
Only when I stop to think about it
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
Only when I stop to think
About you, I know
Only when you stop to think
About me, do you know?
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
You hate everything about me
Why do you love me?
I hate
You hate
I hate
You love me
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?

Every time we lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven't missed you yet

Every room-mate kept awake
By every sigh and scream we make
All the feelings that I get
But I still don't miss you yet
Only when I stop to think about it

I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?

Every time we lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven't missed you yet
Only when I stop to think about it

I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?

Only when I stop to think about you
I know
Only when you stop to think about me
Do you know?

I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
You hate everything about me
Why do you love me?

I hate
You hate
I hate
You love me
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?

and Karlı dağlar kara bulut içinde
Yaylası hüzünlü yöresi bir hoş
Sevdalı yolcular umut içinde
Hayalin düğünü töresi bir hoş bir hoş
Han sarhoş hancı sarhoş
Yolda yabancı sarhoş
El çek tabip kalbimden
İçimdeki sancı sarhoş
İçimdeki sancı sarhoş
Hayalin düğünü töresi bir hoş bir hoş
Han sarhoş hancı sarhoş
Yolda yabancı sarhoş
El çek tabip kalbimden
İçimdeki sancı sarhoş
İçimdeki sancı sarhoş
Bahar gelmiş Nurhak Dağı otlanmış
Bizim evde bayram günü kutlanmış
Obalar dağılmış dostlar yadlanmış
Eyvah ayrılığın yaresi bir hoş bir hoş
Han sarhoş hancı sarhoş
Yolda yabancı sarhoş
El çek doktor kalbimden
İçimdeki sancı sarhoş
İçimdeki sancı sarhoş
Eyvah ayrılığın yaresi bir hoş bir hoş
Han sarhoş hancı sarhoş
Elde yabancı sarhoş
El çek tabip kalbimden
İçimdeki sancı sarhoş
İçimdeki sancı sarhoş
Mahzuni yıldızım aylar içinde
Bağlanmışım zülfü yaylar içinde
Yüzemez yunuslar çaylar içinde
Deniz vurgunun yaresi bir hoş bir hoş
Han sarhoş hancı sarhoş
Yolda yabancı sarhoş
El çek tabip kalbimden
İçimdeki sancı sarhoş
İçimdeki sancı sarhoş
Deniz vurgunun yaresi bir hoş bir hoş
Han sarhoş hancı sarhoş
Yolda yabancı sarhoş
El çek tabip kalbimden
İçimdeki sancı sarhoş
İçimdeki sancı sarhoş
