Fading
Seafoal Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I saw you come in late
You nearly broke my heart ya did
You spun me out of shape
And then you almost made me sick
I've got you figured out
The frowns, the silence
I know you're all about
The mood, the violence

Turn it around, I've found that I'm lonely
Kick it down a notch to only see that we
Ran out of everything we dreamed
Take me out with all of your demons
On the ground floor without a reason
I've finally found a method to come clean
Fading

My eyes are on the clocks
I know your brain is glittering
We fed it to the dogs
And this is such a bitter thing
I've got you all mapped out
Your face, your fever
You are without a doubt
The worst believer

Turn it around, I've found that I'm lonely
Kick it down a notch to only see that we
Ran out of everything we dreamed
Take me out with all of your demons
On the ground floor without a reason
I've finally found a method to come clean
Fading

The worst is yet to come
Erase it all and then display the sun
Don't you say you're not the only one who's from
Where you're from

Turn it around, I've found that I'm lonely
Kick it down a notch to only see that we
Ran out of everything we dreamed
Take me out with all of your demons
On the ground floor without a reason




I've finally found a method to come clean
Fading

Overall Meaning

In Seafoal's song "Fading," the singer is expressing her feelings towards someone who comes into her life and almost immediately disrupts her emotions. The song's opening line describes how she saw this person come in late and how it almost broke her heart. As the song progresses, she gets more specific about how this person has made her feel: spun her out of shape and made her sick. However, she also claims to have this person "figured out," understanding that they are all about the "mood" and "violence."


Despite all of this pain and turbulence, the singer seems to have found a way to deal with everything. In the chorus, she "turns it around" and sees herself as "lonely." She then desires to "take me out with all your demons" and "come clean." She longs for freedom, but the only way she can achieve this is by confronting the darkness of her own past. The song's finale posits an interesting idea that while the "worst is yet to come" the solution is to "erase it all and then display the sun." The singer and the audience alike must confront the darkest parts of themselves to achieve enlightenment.


Overall, "Fading" is a powerful song about confronting past demons and finding a way to move past pain. By placing the disturbing aspects of life front and center, Seafoal's songwriters paint a poignant image of what it means to heal and confront one's fears.

I’ve been playin’ it out but we never change
We’re just caught in a game, lost in our ways
And who can we blame?
If only we found some other way to turn it around
We’re just living for now, no telling how we’ll find our way out

Why would you, why would you go and throw it away?
Why would you, why would you go and throw it away?

We build it up to tear it down
Broken pieces on the ground
We’re damage done so on we run
Holdin’ on to fadin’ love
Holdin’ on to fadin’ love
Holdin’ on to fadin’ love

I’ve been hangin’ my hopes on all that you say
Words won’t fill in the holes if we’ve given up on findin’ a way to hold on
The world that we know will tremble and shake
If we don’t see it now, it won’t be long before it breaks

Why would you, why would you go and throw it away?
Why would you, why would you go and throw it away?

We build it up to tear it down
Broken pieces on the ground
We’re damage done so on we run
Holdin’ on to fadin’ love
Holdin’ on to fadin’ love
Holdin’ on to fadin’ love

Why would you, why would you go and throw it away?
Why would you, why would you go and throw it away?

We build it up to tear it down
Broken pieces on the ground
We’re damage done so on we run
Holdin’ on to fadin’ love
We build it up to tear it down
Broken pieces on the ground
We’re damage done so on we run
Holdin’ on to fadin’ love
Holdin’ on to fadin’ love
Holdin’ on to fadin’ love

This has so many connections to new and old sound. Absolutely love the vocals, very 90's electronic/dance beat and a great hook and outro. Incredible song all the way through. Absolute adventure
