Lyrics
I drown in the oceans that keep us apart
I feel overwhelmed by the emotional distance between us.
Mapping distant stars
I explore faraway celestial bodies in an attempt to bridge the gap.
Oh their voices call me
Voices, presumably memories or thoughts, beckon me.
To the shelter of your skin
I'm drawn to the safety and comfort of being close to you.
Where the end begins
The beginning of the end is found within the intimacy we share.
Oh I'm fading through
I am gradually losing myself.
Oh I'm fading through nothing left to do
I am fading away, and there's nothing more to be done.
And can't you see it was all for you?
All my efforts were for you, can't you realize?
I'd climb on rooftops
I would go to great heights to catch a glimpse of something beautiful.
To catch a glimpse of the moon
The moon symbolizes an unattainable or fleeting aspect of the relationship.
A fading trail of you a mountain of effort
Efforts made are diminishing, leaving behind a fading connection.
And a wall of prayer
Prayers and efforts seem to be met with obstacles.
But this war is to the death
The struggle in the relationship is intense and potentially destructive.
Oh we're fading through
We are collectively losing our connection.
Oh we're fading through nothing left to do
We are fading away with no solutions left.
And can't you see it was all for you?
All the struggles were for the sake of the relationship.
Oh we're fading through
The fading process continues.
Oh we're fading through nothing left to do
We are fading away with no resolutions in sight.
And can't you see it was all for you?
All the efforts were made with love and dedication.
Can you make this new?
Is it possible to start anew?
Can you make this new? Body crumbles to dust
The physical body deteriorates, but the desire to hold on remains.
But I can't lose you
Even in the face of decay, I cannot bear to lose you.
