Fade Away
Squealer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I caught myself
In endless darkness
A blood red moon will be my light

Emptiness has praved my endless search
Please free my soul
And wash my sins away, away
And wash my sins away, away

[Chorus]
When daylight will fade away
Free the night
When daylight will fade away
Free the night
Fade away

Tears and pain
Eternal life
Feed the dark with a breath of life

I drift away with my wish to die
Please free my soul
And wash my sins away, away
And wash my sins away, away

[Chorus 3x]
When daylight will fade away
Free the night
When daylight will fade away




Free the night
[Fade away]

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Squealer's song Fade Away are intricate and filled with imagery. The opening lines, "I caught myself in endless darkness, a blood red moon will be my light," paint a picture of the singer struggling with their own inner demons in a dark and lonely place. The mention of the blood red moon indicates that the struggle is intense and possibly violent.


The second half of the first paragraph mentions the emptiness that has plagued the singer's search for meaning. The singer pleads for their soul to be freed and their sins washed away. This is a common theme in many religious traditions where individuals feel burdened by the weight of their guilt and long for a sense of redemption.


The chorus of the song, "When daylight will fade away, free the night, fade away," seems to suggest a desire for a release from the constraints of everyday life. The idea of the night being "freed" indicates that the singer longs for a chance to let go of their troubles and enjoy a sense of freedom.


The second verse talks about tears and pain feeding eternal life. This could be interpreted as a reference to the idea that suffering is necessary to attain enlightenment or spiritual growth. The singer then expresses a wish to die, which could be interpreted as a desire to shed the burden of their current life and start anew.


Overall, the lyrics to Fade Away are complex and open to interpretation, but they seem to center around themes of struggle, redemption, and transcendence.
