Fades

First conversation of the day Realise there's nothing left to say We all fall elapse from the strengths of our convictions To the point where negativity meets our contradictions A fate I tried to hide away A trait that my face can't bear to frame A rain fine but laced with a hate that's hard to taste Tried to place the point in time but lost the rhythm to the rhyme But then I fell Hoping that you missed it Giving up a thought I just dismissed it A wish list is drawn and acted on almost wholeheartedly Restarting the disease suffered by those who master artistry The laugh, the mask that slips under the strain Like points underneath derailing trains A mark that's unremovable The scars school the stupid fool The dreams of growing up through the deepest darkest youth But grew, to something so reflective Could see yourself and all you neglected The less is more it's easier to ignore I'll fall asleep and snore throughout the loudest lion's roars But just before, our loves become our chores The only battles fought to settle scores We start to sow the seed that leads the audience to leave We feed them to the roads and watch them stagger as they go So, I'm singing just for you Each night could be the last So thanks for passing through You know I wouldn't change a thing Even if I could, even if I should And all it takes is just one look Last words are uttered in dismay All parties turn to walk away Strange to think now All feelings dulled by pain How I ever thought that I could bear this weight, take this strain Just how did it ever come to this A sure shot I threw but somehow missed A vision that was crystal-clouded with a mist A hand waved it away from comfort zones to just dismiss The list of wishes lost with nothing crossed Too many times the hand spun around the clock The ragged rascal ran around the clock Fell, lost the plot Tongue-tied, rhythms stopped Fried and tied in knots Forgot, just how to walk the block The sum of life's excuses changes what? Our skin was briefly touched Paths were swiftly crossed Ships that simply pass because the rowing can't be stopped So, I'm singing just for you Each night could be the last So thanks for passing through You know I wouldn't change a thing Even if I could, even if I should And all it takes is just one look And though we opened all these doors We tried to let it breathe We could have never loved it more You know I wouldn't change a thing You know I wouldn't change a thing You know I wouldn't change a thing And though we opened all these doors We tried to let it breathe We could have never loved it more You know I wouldn't change a thing You know I wouldn't change a thing You know I wouldn't change a thing
