At this point of my life I’ve come to ponder
The people around me have moved on with their lives
Leaving me behind and I begin to wonder
Will I be remembered or will I just fade into time
I remember the days we spent together
All the joys, sorrows and laughter
It seemed like it would last forever
It never crossed my mind that someday it would falter
As I look into my fading existence
I ask myself was my life worth anything
Was I able to make any difference?
Will I be remembered as I fade into nothing?
As I look into these things, I shudder
I’m afraid of fading without leaving a trace
I’m scared of knowing I can’t go on forever
Am I destined to disappear leaving nothing but a haze?
The people around me have moved on with their lives
Leaving me behind and I begin to wonder
Will I be remembered or will I just fade into time
I remember the days we spent together
All the joys, sorrows and laughter
It seemed like it would last forever
It never crossed my mind that someday it would falter
As I look into my fading existence
I ask myself was my life worth anything
Was I able to make any difference?
Will I be remembered as I fade into nothing?
As I look into these things, I shudder
I’m afraid of fading without leaving a trace
I’m scared of knowing I can’t go on forever
Am I destined to disappear leaving nothing but a haze?
