They Fade Away

Beyond the scope of mortals, longing to be young forever
From crib into the grave we go hand in hand, together

Fine today, gone the next
But nothing found inside of you
Sour soil leads the way through the wrecks
How much you fought, tomorrow it's gone
Your memories and dreams
They fade away and die
They fade away and die

They say life is but a stage and our days are numbered
Torn away from all the lies within you used to wander
Endless search for something new yet nothing to be found
The reaper's call will always be silent without a sound

Shine a day, leave the next
But nothing found inside of you
Mortal coil - place the noose around our necks
How much we fought, tomorrow all gone
Our memories and thoughts
They fade away and die

All that once was safe now turns into a battleground
And everything that was built along will come crashing down
