Journey deep, through my mind, lost in thoughts intertwined
Once a spark, now a flame, tries to reignite my name
With each stroke of the pen, feeling hollow again
'Cause the muse that I chase, vanished, leaving a trace so thin
In the echoes of time, where the shadows confine
I search for a sign, but the words fail to shine
Fade away, fade away
In the night, in the grey
With the price, I must pay
Fade away
Memories haunt, as the ink starts to dry
Every note that I've known turns to dust with a sigh
In the silence so loud, where the doubt wears a crown
As the colors all blur, and the storm settles down
From the height of the sky to this desolate ground
Hear the whispering lies that no longer astound
Fade away, fade away
In the night, in the grey
With the price, I must pay
Fade away
In the mirror's reflection, I see remnants remain
Of a passion once fierce, now it battles in vain
Guitar strings that once sang, now just echo the pain
As the silence engulfs every lingering refrain
Fade away, fade away
In the night, in the grey
With the price, I must pay
Fade away
Clocks unwind, marking time as I grasp at the air
Words once bold now dissolve, leaving nothing to share
The blank pages stare back, see the emptiness there
And the songs in my soul fading, lost everywhere
In this labyrinth of late night, where the shadows invade
Every glimmer of hope seems to sputter and fade
Fade away, fade away
In the night, in the grey
With the price, I must pay
Fade away
But in the quiet of dawn, a faint glimmer remains
Of a fire rekindled beneath the layers of pain
With each sunrise anew, battles fought, battles won
Though the struggle persists, the creation's begun
So I'll rise from the ash, find the light in the fray
And the muse that I seek, may return, come what may
Fade away, fade away
In the night, in the grey
With the price, I must pay
Fade away
