Fading

We're placed on this earth
For barely a day
You're born here into this life
Soon you're taken away

Fires may come
Blessings may rise
But the end of the story
Never comes as a surprise

We are fading
Come take my hand
Come with me
We'll go together to the light
All is fading
We'll go together
Everythingv We'll go together

Though nothing remains
And all things must go
Just for the moment
Let's not let it show

We are fading
Come take my hand
Come with me
We'll go together to the light
All is fading
We'll go together
Everythingv We'll go together

And so when the lights
Dim and the stage
Is struck and this play
Forgotten with the age

We'll know we performed
The roles we were cast
And there's nothing else of life
That we were asked.
