Fade Away

Dun-dun… drrrraaan…

(Slow build, feedback humming)

Verse 1

I’m walking on the edge of a neon night,

Streetlights flicker like a broken fight,

Heart beats loud in a city of lies,

I see the truth in your burning eyes.

Pre-Chorus

Every word you said was gasoline,

One spark away from a violent dream,

I tried to run, but I’m locked inside,

This cage of sound, nowhere to hide.

Chorus

🎸 Let it scream, let it break, let it burn tonight!

I got static in my veins, yeah I’m ready to fight,

Turn it up till the walls all shake,

I won’t fade away, no I won’t stay quiet!

Verse 2

Smoke in the air, my hands still shake,

Another promise I couldn’t fake,

You said we’d last, but the truth cuts deep,

Some scars don’t fade, they never sleep.

Pre-Chorus

I hear the past like a loaded gun,

Tick-tock, counting down to one,

If this is hell then I’ll light the flame,

Say my name, say my name.

Chorus

🎸 Let it scream, let it break, let it burn tonight!

I got static in my veins, yeah I’m ready to fight,

Turn it up till the walls all shake,

I won’t fade away, no I won’t stay quiet!

🎸 Fast bends, wah effect, heavy distortion

(Drums go double-time)

Bridge (Half-time Feel)

If I fall, I’ll fall standing tall,

No regret when I hear the call,

From the silence, from the pain,

I rise again, I rise again.

Final Chorus (Bigger, Louder)

🎸 Let it scream, let it break, let it burn tonight!

I got fire in my soul, I’m alive tonight,

Turn it up till the sky all shakes,

This is my voice, and I won’t stay quiet!
