## Intro
*(Clean, reverb-heavy guitar arpeggios)*
*(Soft drums with brushes)*
*(4 bars building atmosphere)*
## Verse 1
*(Soft, intimate vocals over clean guitar)*
These bedroom walls have heard me cry
A thousand tears I can't deny
Pictures fading on the shelf
Of who I used to be myself
The mirror shows a stranger's face
Lost inside this empty space
Your ghost still haunts these sheets at night
I'm drowning in fluorescent light
## Chorus (First Time - Soft/Vulnerable)
*(Clean vocals, almost whispered, with emotional tremor)*
*I'm losing myself in the fading light*
*Can't tell what's wrong, can't tell what's right*
*Everything I touch just turns to stone*
*I'm so tired of being alone*
*So tired of being alone...*
## Verse 2
*(Slightly building intensity)*
Coffee stains and cigarette burns
Mark the places where my heart still yearns
For something real, for something true
But all I see are thoughts of you
The rain keeps falling on my roof
Like teardrops without any proof
That things will ever be okay
I'm fading more with every day
## Chorus (Second Time - Building)
*(Vocals getting stronger, slight rasp)*
*I'm losing myself in the fading light*
*Can't tell what's wrong, can't tell what's right*
*Everything I touch just turns to stone*
*I'm so tired of being alone*
*So tired of being alone...*
## Bridge/Breakdown
*(Music drops to just clean guitar and soft drums)*
*(Whispered vocals)*
Maybe I'm not strong enough
Maybe I'm just giving up
Maybe this is who I am
Someone who can't understand...
*(Building tension)*
How to live... how to breathe...
How to make you believe...
## Final Chorus (Explosive - Low Screams)
*(Full distortion, heavy drums, bass drops)*
*(Vocals transform from soft to intense screaming)*
**I'M LOSING MYSELF IN THE FADING LIGHT!**
**CAN'T TELL WHAT'S WRONG, CAN'T TELL WHAT'S RIGHT!**
**EVERYTHING I TOUCH JUST TURNS TO STONE!**
**I'M SO TIRED OF BEING ALONE!**
*(Screamed with raw emotion)*
**SO TIRED OF BEING ALONE!**
**I CAN'T DO THIS ON MY OWN!**
**FADING LIGHT! FADING LIGHT!**
**EVERYTHING'S NOT ALRIGHT!**
## Outro
*(Music suddenly drops back to clean guitar)*
*(Soft, broken vocals returning)*
*I'm losing myself...*
*In the fading light...*
*(Single clean guitar note fading to silence)*
