[Intro - Haunting, distant vocal] I really wanna stay at home But I'm scared that memory's gonna fade away Fade away... Fade away... [Verse 1] My soul is falling The darkness is calling Pride inside me keeps me up The clock keeps turning My mind keeps burning But I tell myself I'm tough Pictures on my phone Faces that I know Somehow they don't look the same Every night gets longer Thought I'd be much stronger Still I'm holding on again [Pre-Chorus] The darkness sometimes is fading Memory, nostalgia invading Music keeps me sane Every beat keeps me breathing Every melody has meaning Takes me back again [Chorus] I really wanna stay at home But I'm scared that memory's gonna fade away I really wanna be alone But the silence takes me back to yesterday Don't fade away Don't fade away I'm holding on to yesterday Don't fade away Don't fade away Turn it louder Make it stay [Post-Chorus / Electronic Drop] Don't let it fade Don't let it fade Fade... Fade... Fade away... [Instrumental Drop] [Verse 2] I can't remember the words anymore But I still know the melody When I'm broken, when I'm hurting There's a rhythm underneath me Old songs keep on playing All the things I wasn't saying Coming back again Through the sickness, through the sorrow There will always be tomorrow Music keeps me sane [Pre-Chorus] My soul is falling The darkness is calling Pride inside me keeps me up The darkness sometimes is fading Memory, nostalgia invading I turn the music up [Chorus] I really wanna stay at home But I'm scared that memory's gonna fade away I really wanna be alone But the silence takes me back to yesterday Don't fade away Don't fade away I'm holding on to yesterday Don't fade away Don't fade away Turn it louder Make it stay [Phonk Drop - Chopped Vocals] Fade... Fade... Fade away... Don't let it fade Music keeps me sane Don't let it fade [Instrumental] [Bridge - Stripped Back, Haunting] Maybe every memory fades Maybe nothing stays the same But a melody can take me Somewhere time can't take away I don't need to know the words I just need to feel the sound When the darkness comes to find me Music always pulls me out I can't remember the words... But I still know the melody... [Build] Through the sickness Through the sorrow There will always be tomorrow Through the darkness Through the pain Music keeps me sane Music keeps me sane MUSIC KEEPS ME SANE [Final Chorus - Huge] I really wanna stay at home But I'm not gonna let the memory fade away Even when I'm all alone I can turn it up and find my way The darkness sometimes is fading Memory, nostalgia invading But the music keeps me sane Through the sickness, through the sorrow I'll still wake up tomorrow Even if yesterday disappears The melody's still here [Final Drop] STILL HERE STILL HERE Don't let it fade STILL HERE STILL HERE Music keeps me sane [Outro - Emotional, music gradually disappearing] And when the night is over I'll be a little older But that sound will stay with me Years may turn to shadows Faces come and go But somewhere in the silence There's a song I'll always know Through the sickness Through the sorrow I'll still wake up tomorrow Even if yesterday disappears... The melody's still here [Whispered] Still here... Still here... I don't remember the words... But I remember how it feels. [Long pause] I'm scared that memory's gonna fade away... ...but the melody won't.
