Fading
Shallou Lyrics

I've been playin' it out but we never change
I have been trying to fix our situation, but it always remains the same.

We're just caught in a game, lost in our ways and who can we blame?
We are stuck in a cycle of destructive behavior and cannot find a way out. It is difficult to assign blame for this situation.

If only we found some other way to turn it around
We wish there was an alternative solution that could help us fix our problems.

We're just living for now, no telling how we'll find our way out
We are only focused on the present and uncertain about how we will resolve the issues in the future.

Why would you, why would you go and throw it away?
Why would you intentionally ruin what we have?

We build it up to tear it down
We work hard to make things better, but end up destroying everything.

Broken pieces on the ground
Our efforts have resulted in shattered and damaged parts lying on the floor.

We're damage done so on we run
We have already done too much harm to each other, so we continue to move forward without looking back.

Holdin' on to fadin' love
We are still holding on to our diminishing love for one another.

I've been hangin' my hopes on all that you say
I have been relying on your words and promises to give me hope for our future.

Words won't fill in the holes if we've given up on findin' a way to hold on
Even though you may say the right things, they will not be enough to fix our problems if we have given up on finding a solution.

The world that we know will tremble and shake
If we do not address our issues, our familiar and comfortable world will fall apart.

If we don't see it now, it won't be long before it breaks
If we continue to ignore the problems, our situation will eventually reach a breaking point.
