FADE AWAY
Fading Colours Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As the candle burns away
I watch the flame
And the music slowly fades
As I slowly fae away
In the glow of this dying flame
And the music lingers on

As the candle burns away
With no promises of eternal light

Too late to say a fucking word
It's too far away I'm gone
While this day is over
And the game is lost
And I'm alone

'Cause I feel
And hear
And I remember ...

As the candle burns away
With no promise of eternal light




As the candle burns away
There'll be only night

Line by Line Meaning

As the candle burns away
Watching the candle slowly deplete into darkness


I watch the flame
Observing the diminishing light of the candle


And the music slowly fades
The sound of the music gradually decreases


As I slowly fade away
My presence wanes into oblivion


In the glow of this dying flame
In the radiance of a candle dwindling towards its end


And the music lingers on
The melody persists despite the diminishing volume


With no promises of eternal light
The candle's flicker is finite


Too late to say a fucking word
Impossible to communicate at this juncture


It's too far away I'm gone
Moved beyond reach or recall


While this day is over
As the sun sets upon the current day


And the game is lost
Victory has escaped me


And I'm alone
All that's left is solitude


'Cause I feel
Because I experience emotions


And hear
And perceive sounds


And I remember ...
Recalling memories in this moment


There'll be only night
The future holds only darkness

They are very underrated.But i remember them. Her voice is amazing. In this garden of mine is the first song I heard from them. I never forgot. I used to request it in this club I would go to in Austin tx and they would play it.

Mój ulubiony utwór z wczesnych lat 00’. Ciekawe czy jeszcze grają. Polecam tez solowy trip-hopowy wokalistki, nazywał się chyba „De Coy”.
