Fade Away
Embracing Colors: Zoe Zobrist's Journey Beyond Yesterday
Lyrics
I read the book, won't see the movie
Choosing to read instead of watching a movie adaptation.
They cut it up, so it goes down easy
Media being simplified for easier consumption.
That bitter pill, they sweetly sell me
Accepting a difficult truth presented in an appealing manner.
Stock up, refill, til' my mind stops racing
Consuming substances to calm a restless mind.
Those bottles line the walls
Empty bottles symbolizing attempts to fix problems.
Tell me they're gonna fix it all
Hopes that the bottles will solve everything.
Give me something colorful, more beautiful
Desire for something vibrant and attractive.
I can't watch myself just fade away
Fear of losing oneself without a colorful experience.
I've given up on comfortable, I'm letting go
Abandoning comfort for personal growth.
Tired of holding onto yesterday
Rejecting the attachment to the past.
Pack my things, old cardboard boxes
Packing belongings, a symbolic act of moving on.
Some gasoline to light up the darkness
Intentionally creating change, even if destructive.
Old cell phones, photo booth kisses
Memories of past relationships captured in photos.
Friends, old demos, some lights from last Christmas
Letting go of old connections and memories.
Those shadows line the walls
Remaining shadows of past experiences.
It's gotten so quiet in these halls
Emptiness and silence after significant changes.
Give me something colorful, more beautiful
Seeking something visually appealing and positive.
I can't watch myself just fade away
Fear of fading away without vibrant experiences.
I've given up on comfortable, I'm letting go
Choosing growth over comfort.
Tired of holding onto yesterday
Letting go of the past and its burdens.
So give me something colorful, more beautiful
Yearning for positivity and beauty.
I can't watch myself just fade away
Fear of losing vibrancy and individuality.
I've given up on comfortable, I'm letting go
Choosing personal growth over comfort.
Tired of holding onto yesterday
Rejecting the burden of past experiences.
