Fading
Vacation Manor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Honestly, I′ve been asking questions about you and me
'Cause lately nothing seems to come too easily
I can′t see where we're heading, but I wait and say
"Give it time, let it breathe"

Can't let one hard season fill your head with reasons
For up and leaving, fight what you feel it takes the real thing
I feel it fading, been waiting on to feel the changing
It′s just my instinct to get up and run

Half-past three, I′m staring at the ceiling staring back at me
Telling me I'm no where near where I should be
Feels like I′ve been flying blind, but wait and see
Give it time, just let it breathe

If you fight what you feel and taste the real thing
It tastes so sweet but you keep on saying

I feel it fading, been waiting on to feel the changing
It's just my instinct to get up and run
Take it or leave it, ′cause I can't afford to not be chasing
It′s just my instinct to get up and run
I feel it fading, been waiting on to feel the changing
It's just my instinct to get up and run




Take it or leave it, 'cause I can′t afford to not be chasing
It′s just my instinct to get up and run

Overall Meaning

The song "Fading" by Vacation Manor is about the uncertainty of a relationship and the fear of losing someone who is important to you. The singer begins by confessing that he has been questioning the state of his relationship with his significant other. He admits that things feel stagnant and difficult, but he doesn't want to give up just yet. He acknowledges that he doesn't know where they're heading, but he's willing to be patient and wait for things to improve. He encourages his partner to do the same, saying that they should let the relationship breathe.


The chorus of the song is about the struggle between staying in a relationship and giving up. The singer tells his partner that they shouldn't let one hard season (difficult time) ruin their relationship. He urges them to fight for what they feel is real and not to run away from their problems. However, he admits that his instinct is to run away, which is a recurring theme throughout the song. The singer is struggling with his fear of losing his partner, and he's not sure if he should stay and fight or walk away.


The second verse continues this theme, as the singer describes feeling lost and directionless. He's unsure of where he's going in life, and he feels like he's flying blind. Once again, he urges himself and his partner to be patient and wait for things to improve. However, he admits that he's tempted to give up and run away, even though he knows it's not the right thing to do.


Overall, "Fading" is a poetic and emotional song about the ups and downs of relationships. The singer is honest about his fears and doubts, but he's also hopeful that things will get better. He encourages his partner to stay and fight, even though he's not sure if he can do the same.
