Fading Away
I touch your spine
And count your vertebrae every one
I feel your ribs
Beneath your paper skin they crowd
And I am overcome and guilty
I am eaten up with shame
I am branded by these memories
Of your slow decline
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
I wish that I
Could take back all the words that I said
Time heals the wounds
But what about the scars they leave behind?
And I am overcome and guilty
I am eaten up with shame
I am branded by these memories
Of your slow decline
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Lying there on an expanse of white
Like a skeleton in the snow
Lying silent, like a stillborn child
In an amniotic glow
You look so small
You look so small
You look so small
You look so small
I feel so small
I feel so small
I feel so small
I feel so God damn small
And I am overcome and guilty
I am eaten up with shame
I am branded by these memories
Of your slow decline
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
And count your vertebrae every one
I feel your ribs
Beneath your paper skin they crowd
And I am overcome and guilty
I am eaten up with shame
I am branded by these memories
Of your slow decline
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
I wish that I
Could take back all the words that I said
Time heals the wounds
But what about the scars they leave behind?
And I am overcome and guilty
I am eaten up with shame
I am branded by these memories
Of your slow decline
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Lying there on an expanse of white
Like a skeleton in the snow
Lying silent, like a stillborn child
In an amniotic glow
You look so small
You look so small
You look so small
You look so small
I feel so small
I feel so small
I feel so small
I feel so God damn small
And I am overcome and guilty
I am eaten up with shame
I am branded by these memories
Of your slow decline
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
Fading away
