Fade

One day I'll get older

Then it will be over

Want to live a long life

Like there is no next time

(Who knows ho long after today

Life is too short to fade away

I've heard a million stories

Some self explanatory

But then the words fade into gray

Take from the final pages

Whatever is contagious

Then make it all just fade away

Each day I get older

Get a little colder

I don't need to fit in

Like I did way back then
