Watch Me Fade

Song 166

Today's song may sound a little depressing, but it really originated from me lamenting to myself that the position of the sun this morning meant that I didn't have a shady spot to sit under while I had my morning coffee. My brain takes off on tangents once I put pen to paper. The song itself is a nice piano-driven piece. A lot of minor chords going on, so that also lent itself to sad sounding words. All together, it turned out nicely....

lyrics

Stick around a while and watch me fade
All I needed was a patch of shade

All the fates said I had to hold on
All the muses told me it was worth the pain

Pierce the veil and wonder why this works
All the pieces fit, despite the hurt

All the graces gave me all I needed
All the sirens lured me to my demise

I have seen everything, I have tasted life
I crawl off and fade away

All the fates told me I had to hold on
Until my thread was cut

Stick around a while and watch me fade
All I needed was a patch of shade
