Fading Away

I think I'm fading away
I think I'm falling out the picture and crawling down from the frame
Give me a few more months before you forget my name
Or the place we met
Am I one to forget?

I think I'm fading away

I think I'm fading away
More often I am finding less and less to say
Punctuated by the silence, I abstain from all

The ways you try to be cool
Always verging on cruel

I can't hear my mouth
My words are drenched in doubt
There are things I'd like to say
But they always slip away

Again
As I fade again
Away again
I fade again

I think I'm fading away
I've become impertinent and fear my words will stay
Strangled in obscurity 'cuz one cannot be
Great and stay comfortable
Success always stems from struggle

I can hear my mouth
My words still filled with doubt
But all the things I want to say
Come pouring out anyway

Again
As I fade again
Slip away again
I fade again

Our last vestige of youth
Alluring us and eluding us
I'm alluding to the delusion that I still need you
