Afraid to Fade

[Verse] Shadows creep on my trembling skin Can't shake the fear where do I begin Echoes whisper in cold dark halls Afraid to fade when the curtain falls [Verse 2] Eyes wide open in the dead of night Heart pounding in a losing fight Mirror shows a face I don't know Can't be a ghost with nowhere to go [Chorus] Afraid to fade into the mist Can't exist just to be dismissed Afraid to fade into the night Must hold on with all my might [Verse 3] Every corner got a haunting dread Footsteps follow where I'm being led Silent screams in the empty room Fighting hard against impending doom [Bridge] Walls closing in tight around my soul Darkness taking an insistent toll Life's a battle but I ain't the prey I won't be a ghost lost in the fray [Chorus] Afraid to fade into the mist Can't exist just to be dismissed Afraid to fade into the night Must hold on with all my might
