Lyrics

Fading Back

Alexander Aruca

He walks the streets, alone tonight.
The shadows seem to watch his step.
His thoughts immersed in times gone bye.
Tomorrow cries what would have been.
& the night grows cold, as his dreams begin to fail.
His world seems lost, can this sorrow ever fade.

Holding on to good times passed,
can sometimes lift the pain we bare
The mind is strong, & heals with space
From the things that sorrow breeds

& the world goes on, our lives are lost to fate
All will carry on, as a new life begins.

As memories wane, new lessons begin.
All the hurt from lessons learned
Serve a purpose fulfilled.
Though the pain we won’t forget
Holds us slaves to our past.
We craft an image to sooth the soul.
