Fading Light

*(Verse 1)*  
Used to run like the rivers flow,  
Had dreams bigger than the sky could hold.  
But now the days move slow, too slow,  
And every breath feels bought and sold.  

*(Pre-Chorus)*  
I fought, I raged,  
Clawed at every door I could break.  
But it's stronger now,  
And I'm too tired to push back fate.  

*(Chorus)*  
Let the waves take me,  
Let the stars dim their shine.  
I am slipping, softly drifting,  
In the arms of borrowed time.  

*(Verse 2)*  
Mirror shows a stranger now,  
Bones too frail to wear my name.  
Used to be a storm, now just a whisper,  
A candle flickering in the rain.  

*(Bridge)*  
Don't cry for me when morning comes,  
The sun will rise like it always has.  
Remember love, the laughter, the wild,  
Not the way my body passed.  

*(Chorus - Repeat)*  
Let the waves take me,  
Let the stars dim their shine.  
I am slipping, softly drifting,  
In the arms of borrowed time.  

*(Outro)*  
And when I’m gone,  
Don’t hold on too tight.  
I’ll be somewhere,  
Still part of the fading light.
