Fading
Didrik Thulin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When the sky is falling down
And your eyes are raining
And the dark blue sea
Makes you realise
That all of our memories are fading away
While the waves keep kissing you on your feet
All the things we had together (had together)
Seems like they're fading
Fading away
Seems like they're fading
Fading away
All the things we had together (had together)
Seems like they're fading
Fading away
Seems like they're fading
Fading away
Burning down our bridges
Without knowing what we broke
It is hard to keep on moving
When you can still smell the smoke
Although memories will always
Be turned into gold
So for now I will put my love on hold
All the things we had together (had together)
Seems like they're fading
Fading away
Seems like they're fading
Fading away
All the things we had together (had together)
Seems like they're fading
Fading away
Seems like they're fading
Fading away
All the things we had together (had together)
Seems like they're fading
Fading away
Seems like they're fading
Fading away
All the things we had together (had together)
Seems like they're fading
Fading away




Seems like they're fading
Fading away

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Didrik Thulin's song Fading take the listener on an emotional journey through the process of accepting that relationships and their memories fade away with time. The metaphor of the sky falling down and the dark blue sea emphasizes the weight of this realization. When someone is going through a difficult time, it can be hard to hold onto the memories of happier times because they seem to be fading away. As the waves keep kissing you on your feet, the reality sinks in that all of the memories, both good and bad, are fading away. It's hard to come to terms with losing these memories, but sometimes it is necessary to let them go because holding onto the past can prevent us from moving forward.


The line "burning down our bridges without knowing what we broke" speaks to the idea that sometimes we damage relationships without fully realizing the impact of our actions. The damage may not be apparent until it's too late, which can be frustrating and overwhelming. Moving on from these experiences can be hard, but it's important to remember that memories can still be turned into gold even if the relationship ended. Putting love on hold may be necessary to heal, but it doesn't mean that love is gone forever.


Overall, Didrik Thulin's Fading is a powerful reminder that memories and relationships are fleeting, but the experience of love and connection is still valuable even when it's gone.

When the sky is falling down
When everything seems to be going wrong and life is in chaos


And your eyes are raining
And you are crying


And the dark blue sea
And the vast and deep oceans


Makes you realise
Makes you understand


That all of our memories are fading away
That all the memories we made together are slowly being forgotten


While the waves keep kissing you on your feet
While the waves keep coming and going, soothing you with their touch


All the things we had together (had together)
All the moments we spent together (in the past)


Seems like they're fading
Seems like those memories are slowly losing their impact and significance


Fading away
Slowly diminishing to nothingness


Burning down our bridges
Destroying the connections we have made with others

Without realizing what we have lost

It is difficult to keep going forward


When you can still smell the smoke
When the consequences of our actions are still lingering

Despite the fact that memories will always


Be turned into gold
Be treasured and valued


So for now I will put my love on hold
So for now I will stop pursuing a relationship
