Fade Away (I Dont Want To)

                                  Some set their hearts on a rocking chair

The better to sleep out the days

But I'm looking for a reason to kick and scream

I don't want to fade away



We think that the power is in our hands

Cause we're holding the remote control

Pile up the lot and what've you got?

Bitter-sweet nothing at all



[Chorus]

Some set their hearts on a rocking chair

The better to sleep out the days

But I'm looking for a reason to kick and scream

I don't want to fade away

Fade away, fade away

I don't want to fade away



It's a mighty long way from my own front door

To the world we were going to make

We got bloodied and bruised for the old excuse

That it's hard just staying awake



[Chorus]



Fade away, fade away

I don't want to fade away



Wake me up if you catch me falling

Gently into the night

Shine up my shoes 'cause I can't get used

To the dying of the light



[Chorus]



Fade away, fade away

I don't want to fade away 

Fade away, fade away

I don't want to fade away 

Fade away, fade away

I don't want to fade away
