Fade

  Intentions destroyed and left behind

We all get cut down from time to time

Memories buried,

the good and the unspoken

Dreams lay across a mine field

Shattered and broken

Will you ever reach them before your time

        And the distance we go

            (is determined by time)

        And the length we will go

            (is set in our minds)

We think we can see the distance

(If you blink you’ll miss this)

It comes in pieces,

Dreams are flawed for they are all man made

( just like the stars they shine

and just like stars they fade)

We think we've seen it all

(There's nothin to see here)

So let's keep this moving

Its nothing new, we all rise and fall

So to hold myself up

(I keep my back to the wall)

And we think we know the way

(We're just Blind in the Dark)

Taking random shots in the night

(Hoping one will find it's mark)

  And the distance we go

            (is determined by time)

        And the length we will go

            (is set in our minds)

We think we can see the distance

(If you blink you’ll miss this)

It comes in pieces,

Dreams are flawed for they are all man made

( just like the stars they shine

and just like stars they fade)

One may fall so another may rise

And clear the way, and open their eyes

When one's dream comes true

(Several others will die)

A dream’s a needle in a hay stack

(Life's an eye for an eye)

We can't wish to never suffer,

an impossible dream

We need both pain and pleasure

To understand the difference between

Lifes bitter and sweet

(Lifes a cold winter in hell)

Stay on your feet

And Learn from those who've fell

  And the distance we go

            (is determined by time)

        And the length we will go

            (is set in our minds)

We think we can see the distance

(If you blink you’ll miss this)

It comes in pieces,

Dreams are flawed for they are all man made

( just like the stars they shine

and just like stars they fade)

The only outcome that's certain

Is that there will be a final curtain

The end of an act that life can become

While many seem to never end

The end comes quickly for some

the sands of time swallow each and every day

They very same grains that in the hourglass of life dwindle quickly away

      Life on the Dark side

      Tryin to hold it together

      (While livin this curse)

  Look at the Bright side

      It can only get better

      (When it can't get any worse)

  And the distance we go

            (is determined by time)

        And the length we will go

            (is set in our minds)

We think we can see the distance

(If you blink you’ll miss this)

It comes in pieces,

Dreams are flawed for they are all man made

( just like the stars they shine

We all came to light so we can sparkle and fade

We all came to light so we can sparkle and fade

We all came to light so we can sparkle and fade
