Fading
Modern Guns Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

take a look around, trying to be found
i'm taking the wrong way once again
it's been another year, it's been another fear
this is not the life that i want to live
why does everything looks the same?
why does everything never changes?
i'm doing all my best
but i still fail myself

their words still flying all over my head
but i'm still running out of sympathy
i hate the fact that my mind's so lost
i hate the truth that i'm alone

where i have to go now?
if i don't have any direction
i start to worry about myself
i start to worry about this life
i'm growing up, i'm growing cold
i'm getting older day by day

and then i realized
that every season has to change




and then i realized
that every moment start to fade
