Doe Paoro - Soft Power Fading Into Black

Lyrics

A thick haze

Hangs over yesterday

We sleepwalk through a maze

Bruised faith

And in the disbelief, we hope to find relief

But lose days

Against my best defenses, I can’t accept the senseless

Standing alone in the mirror

Wondering what went wrong

Couldn’t have been any clearer

We’re still hanging on

I’d take an hourglass, and I’d shake it, shake it, shake it

But we can’t turn back

I would break it, break it, break it

But there’s no more sand

So we’re fading, fading, fading

Into black

Into black

Into black

Into black

Now we drain

The color wastes away

We’re left to bathe

In dark rain

It’s like the night turned out the lights and now

Forgot to wake

All goodbyes are better, when they are not forever

Standing alone in the mirror

Wondering what went wrong

Couldn’t have been any clearer

We’re still hanging on

I’d take an hourglass, and I’d shake it, shake it, shake it

But we can’t turn back

I would break it, break it, break it

But there’s no more sand

So we’re fading, fading, fading

In denial or a dreamer, could be either or

Lately I’ve been so unsure

In denial or a dreamer, broken what you swore

Only something time could cure
