Lyrics

I took a picture, your form was cloudy in the night

I captured an unclear image of you in the night.

You wrote a letter, you said you try to shed some light

You communicated through a letter, attempting to provide understanding.

On the good and the wicked things we do.

Reflecting on both the positive and negative actions we engage in.


Face my direction, I wanna see you better, dear.

Look in my direction, I want a clearer view of you, my dear.

You're a distraction from everything that I feel

You serve as a distraction from my emotions.

And the good and the wicked things I do.

Acknowledging the mix of good and bad actions in my life.


Sometimes, oh, sometimes,

Expressing uncertainty, contemplating the possibility of fading away.

I think I could fade away.

Considering the idea of disappearing or losing significance.

In the light, oh, the light

Referencing the brightness of an eternal sunny day.

Of an ever sunny day.

Asserting resilience despite challenges.

But I'm stronger than the picture that you took before you left

Asserting personal strength beyond past images.

In the light, it faded to white.

A description of a picture fading to white in the light.

In the light, the colors turn to white.

Emphasizing the transformation of colors to white in the light.


Indian summer, I caught a glimpse of things to come

Recalling a moment of anticipation for the future.

Racing to finish, I never think before I run

Rushing forward without careful consideration.

To the good and the wicked things you do.

Acknowledging both positive and negative actions by another.


Sometimes, oh, sometimes,

Reiterating the uncertainty about fading away.

I think I could fade away.

Revisiting the theme of potential disappearance.

In the light, oh, the light

Connecting the idea of fading away with the brightness of a sunny day.

Of an ever sunny day.

Highlighting resilience in the face of challenges and uncertainties.

But I'm stronger than the picture that you took before you left

Affirming personal strength beyond past images, similar to line 13.

In the light, it faded to white.

Repeating the description of a picture fading to white in the light.

In the light, the colors turn to white.

Reiterating the transformation of colors to white in the light.


In light it faded to white.

Reemphasizing the fading of an image to white in the light.

In the light the colors turn to white.

Reemphasizing the transformation of colors to white in the light.

In light it faded to white.

Repeating the idea of an image fading to white in the light.

In the light the colors turn to white.

Repeating the theme of colors turning to white in the light.

In light it faded to white, ooo ooo ooo.

Reiterating the image fading to white in the light with vocal expression.
