Faded Lyrics

Darkness comes and swallows everything I see
A wind blows cold, piercing to my heart
The gates draw near, I'm so afraid of what I've become
Look at everything that's broken
All my life now wasted away
I never thought it would come to this
I hate it, I hate it

Time would say that when he's gone then I will see
The way, the way my life was meant to be
And I'm so far from where I should be
So far from what I was hoping for
Look at everything that's broken
All my life now wasted away
I never thought it would come to this
I hate it, I hate it

Everything has faded and I
I can't believe my life is over
This isn't what I wanted
I hate it, I hate it
God knows I tried so hard to run, forgetting everything I love
For fear that I might slip away, away from You... God save me
And give anything to live again
I'd give anything for one last breath
If only to scream to You, that I might be saved
I'm letting go of everything
