Fade Away
Futurecop! feat. NINA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Safe inside we're all alone
Shadowed by a glowing phone
Footsteps heard upon the ground
Unsafe inside they're all around

(Oh)
You are meant to fade away
You are meant to fade away
Are you in the darkness
Hiding out with the thoughtless
There's no peace in this cortex
Don't move now or they'll see us
Hide away, don't reveal us
They don't want us to be us

Disconnect our time to own
Words have cut down to the bone
What they said will turn around
Can't speak now or we'll be found

(Oh)
You are meant to fade away
You are meant to fade away
Are you in the darkness
Hiding out with the thoughtless
There's no peace in this cortex
Don't move now or they'll see us
Hide away, don't reveal us
They don't want us to be us

There's nothing here but you surround
Within the silence I can feel the sound
(Oh-o, someone came before)
Adrenaline surges so free
Eyes wide open now they're here for me
(Oh-o, they're opening the door)
Can you hide
It works for me
(Oh-o, someone came before)
Lost inside
It's taking me
(Oh-o, they're breaking down the door)




We can help you now
Free your thoughts, leave behind me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song Fade Away by Futurecop! feat. NINA talks about feeling trapped, alone, and unsafe in a world full of people who don't understand or support us. The song starts describing a situation where we're alone and safe inside, but our virtual presence on our phones makes us feel shadowed in a world full of people who are around us but don't understand us. The lyrics suggest that we are meant to fade away because we feel helpless in a society where we're not wanted. The lines, "Are you in the darkness hiding out with the thoughtless, there's no peace in this cortex" indicates that the world outside is a scary place, and we're hiding from it because it's full of people who don't care about us.


The second verse starts with "Disconnect our time to own, words have cut down to the bone." Here, the lyrics talk about how our words are meaningless, and we feel unheard in our society. The lines, "Can't speak now or we'll be found, you are meant to fade away" indicate the helplessness of the situation. The lyrics depict a scenario of being hunted down by someone, and the only option left is to hide away from them. The words, "They don't want us to be us," suggest that society is not accepting of our true selves, and we're forced to hide and fade away.


Overall, the song speaks about the struggle of coping with loneliness and feeling like an outsider in society. The lyrics are very relatable, and the music adds to the melancholic tone of the song.

kolyaaaaa1

Хорошая музыка.настоящий релакс в духе 80х.давно подписан на NRW. очень качественный саунд. Присоединяйтесь.

welcome to the Real

Хорошей музыки должно быть много и везде. Долой засилье безвкусия и примитива!

Nikolay Ivankov

Синтвейв, ребята - это уже не тоска по 80м. Это про наши дни. Мы должны быть благодарны судьбе, что в 10е годы есть такой жанр.

G B

Я уже 4 года на этом канале. Послушал всё. По несколько раз (порой десяток и более). Эта музыка будет вечной. Кто родился в середине 80-х... тот поймет о чем я.

Sergey Anarchy

Согласен с Вами по поводу музыки.Я на этом канале относительно недавно.Нравятся мне 80ые

Mehul Desai

Absolutely love Nina, not heard this one before

Systematically hurting me Perfectly planned, Let′s lit a game of your soft deceit, It's breaking my heart But I cannot stop it happening and I cannot hide away Somethings holding me back. If this emotions got me, I just wanna hide away Wish I could surrender and walk away

Wish I could just surrender and walk away

Wish I had just remembered to walk away Automatically I can see why you were in mine, All constellations are guiding me I′ll keep my head high So I will not stop discovering what goes on inside my heart I don't wanna look back. And the days I had are challenging And I wont just hide away I know that these hard times will fade away.
