Fade Away

I cannot just stay away
Hoping to feel
Fighting this thrill
Tearing between my pleasure and my pain

Painting every night with black
Every day in white
I can’t betray the light, but I can’t leave the dark
Lying in-between two worlds so far
Turning tears to stars
I can’t leave wishing to stay
Just don’t fade away

You say my name
But I feel the pain
Deep and cold but so I want
You made this choice for me
Becoming my deepest dream

Painting every night with black
Every day in white
I can’t betray the light, but I can’t leave the dark
Lying in-between two worlds so far
Turning tears to stars
I can’t leave wishing to stay
Just don’t fade away

I know that was wrong and it was right
Fighting every breath this very night
Painting the dawn with bloodred light
Don’t fade away…

Painting every night with black
Every day in white
I can’t betray the light, but I can’t leave the dark
Lying in-between two worlds so far
Turning tears to stars
I can’t leave wishing to stay
Just don’t fade away
