Fade
Satchmode Lyrics

In the dead of the night when I'm awake
During lonely nights, when I am unable to sleep,

Do you think about tomorrow or yesterday when it's forgotten do you wish I stayed?
Do you ponder over the past or future? Do you regret my departure?

I'm tryna be right this is my life I can't stay so I just fade.
I am striving to do what's best for me and cannot stay, so I shall gradually disappear from your life.

So you like the guy with dreams and goals,
You have an interest in men who have aspirations and objectives.

you were tired of the men who had sold their souls following the fold, but that's not true.
You claimed to dislike men who compromise their authenticity for societal acceptance, but that may not be wholly accurate.

Following the gold, that's more like you.
Pursuing wealth and success is more your style.

Now a chance to escape from all of that life cause you want to escape from all of that right?
Are you seeking a way out of your current lifestyle and its associated pressures?

Here's your chance but I want you well in advance.
I offer you an opportunity, but I want you to be fully prepared for it.

Still you decide to trash out, change your face.
You still choose to discard what you have and start anew.

I'll tell you right now lady that you know we're going places.
I assure you that we have great potential for success.

So while we ride please girl hold on, take my hand now girl and we can't go wrong.
While we work towards our goals, hold onto me as we move forward in life.

Hope you realize chancing dreams ain't easy, there are times when you can't fight believe me.
I hope you understand that pursuing dreams is difficult, and there may be moments where surrendering is inevitable.

Too much of your life's plan, let's just swing it life's a game and I'm begging you to bring it right here(right here), I know(I know) that there's too much too lose.
You have structured your life too rigidly. Let's be more spontaneous and enjoy it like a game, though I am keenly aware of the risks involved.

It's a wake up call girl, but you're still hitting snooze.
This is a wakeup call for you to pursue your dreams, but you are still delaying it.

You say "give up" too quickly and I don't know why.
You tend to abandon your goals prematurely, and I cannot comprehend why.

But I know will miss me when you lie awake and cry.
You will regret my absence during the nights you spend alone, contemplating our past.

I told you that I wanna be a music man
I expressed my desire to become a musician.

You said "alright baby what's your back up plan?"
You questioned if I have a contingency plan should my pursuit of music fail.

I wonder why that's the first place you go.
I ponder why you think pessimistically right away.

You could have a little faith girl, you know?
You could support me and have a little faith in my abilities.

I know this dream could be a long shot, but you could show some support and what not.
I am well aware that my dream may be far-fetched, but your support would be greatly appreciated.

Finally found an answer to return and say, made it up that's what daddy does anyway.
I found a plausible excuse to tell you, that I made it up as my father does in such scenarios.

I feel bad how I was forced to lie, sometimes your dreams need an alibi.
I regret having to deceive you, but sometimes, one needs to lie to pursue their aspirations.

Clearly that's an answer she likes to hear, she grabs her and whispers something in my ear: "you're gonna be a great man one day."
This is an answer that pleases her, and she whispers sweet encouragement in my ear.

Yeah maybe I'll get mine someday.
Perhaps I will achieve my dreams one day.

I'd rather leave and not lie, it ain't right but now you're stuck right here girl.
I would rather depart and not deceive you but since you refused to support my dream, you are left stuck here without me.
