"menagerie"

FADE AWAY

Looking around me outside my window pain
I remember searching for my past
Now it seems to me that all is lost and nothing gained
I only hoped that it would last
I hear a whisper and I seek you by my side
But I’m left wondering on my own
Did it really happen or did you take me for a ride?
I keep on knocking no ones home

The longer you leave it the harder the crawl

And all my friends they ask me why
Why is love a burden no matter you try
Even though you’re in my memories you’re still in my heart
Then it fades away, yes it fades away

The times are changing but I’ve still got time to learn
From what was once my pride an joy
Close the book of memories and watch those fires burn
I’m just a child without a toy

The longer you leave it the harder the crawl
Lies are forever and the tears that may fall
Parading all my future and you wasted my youth

And all my friends they ask me why
Why is love a faculty no matter you try
Even though you’re in my memories you’re still in my heart
That night I fell into your arms I’d knew we’d be apart
For love I died

The snow is falling and I reach into the stars
For something worthy of my soul
Looks were deceiving and those old grey city cars
Became my life, I lost it all
Now I see myself looking back through the years
I relive triumphs from my past
Nothing to fall back on now, no more lonely tears
My childhood dreams were meant to last

The longer you leave it the harder the crawl

And all my friends they ask me why
Why is love a burden no matter you try
Even though you’re in my memories you’re still in my heart
That night I fell into your arms I’d knew we’d be apart
then it fades away, yes it fades away
