The Fading

[Verse] Closer to an achievement, That holds immeasurable worth, Closer to life, Its meaning unfolding, On your journey, You see your dearest ones, In your mind, The lightest future beckons. [Chorus] With sorrow, I watch my life pass by without me, The darkest corner, my most comforting refuge, I refuse to feel obsolete or wretched, I keep moving, my gaze fixed on the horizon. [Verse 2] Following the ancient lore, Instinctively finding my place, Dreaming of the light, Trapped within the confines, Something always unfolds, And everything must fade, He plans, But destiny intervenes. [Verse 3] No hope, no future, Only despair, Not what I feel or think, But it's in the air, The icy touch of the Reaper, Awakens me at dawn, He whispers that I'm still alive, And urges me to move on. [Chorus] With sorrow, I watch my life pass by without me, The darkest corner, my most comforting refuge, I refuse to feel obsolete or wretched, I keep moving, my gaze fixed on the horizon.
