Fading (bradmuir)

[Verse 1] I kept your voice in folded notes, but paper fades and ink runs cold. Your ghost still lingers in the walls, whispering words it can’t recall. [Pre-Chorus] I swear I felt you yesterday, but time is cruel, it pulls away. Like dust that slips through open hands, you’re gone before I understand. [Chorus] (Hold me back, hold me closer, keep the dark from creeping in.) You are fading through my fingers, but I swear I feel your skin. (Let me stay, let me shatter, keep the past from caving in…) Every picture starts to blur now, but I still see you in the wind. [Verse 2] I found your sweater in the drawer, it smelled like home but not like you. I tried to wear it one last time, but fabric fades and memories do too. [Pre-Chorus] I swear I felt you yesterday, but time is cruel, it pulls away. Like dust that slips through open hands, you’re gone before I understand. [Chorus] (Hold me back, hold me closer, keep the dark from creeping in.) You are fading through my fingers, but I swear I feel your skin. (Let me stay, let me shatter, keep the past from caving in…) Every picture starts to blur now, but I still see you in the wind. [Bridge] I built a room inside my chest, but walls collapse when left undressed. I called your name, but ghosts don’t stay, just voices lost where shadows lay. [Final Chorus] (Hold me back, hold me closer, keep the dark from creeping in.) (Let me stay, let me shatter, keep the past from caving in…) [Outro] I kept your voice in folded notes, but paper fades… and ink runs cold.
