Demon Hunter Album: Storm The Gates Of Hell Track: Fading Away
Fading Away Lyrics
It's in this wake that I find myself Losing the will to resume this Hell When every breath is a dying wish It's harder to follow the point of this
This broken place that I call my home Has deepened the sadness that I have sown And I can't erase what's inside my heart I want it to finish before it starts
My own solution insufficient again No false illusion, this devouring threat I break the vessel, giving air to its red
And open my fate to the darkened sky
Chorus: I've been fading away I've been waiting on the call to reach my veins Ready or not No attention to waste Every sorrow of the self will read my name When I cease to exist
So now I've come to the final sleep I pray that forgiveness is mine to keep I know it's hard to forget this man Driving the failure into your hands
My own solution insufficient again No false illusion, this devouring threat I break the vessel, giving air to its red
And open my fate to the darkened sky
(Chorus)
Song Description: "Fading Away is about waiting to hear a call from the Lord. I think we, as Christians, can get caught up waiting on a specific word from God, all the while sitting stagnant and unproductive. Sometimes it seems like we can slowly begin to fade away from the Lord as we wait for something to slap us in the face. I think in many cases God wants us to take some necessary steps in order for His will to be revealed to us. This song talks about how our own selfish attempt at life is likely to be ill fated, and how we so often live according to our own desires." - Demon Hunter
For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice. -James 3:16
