Fading Away

(intro) Em G C Bm

Em            G                  D
It's in this wake that I find myself
            C         Bm       Em
Losing the will to resume this hell
            G                 D
When every breath is a dying wish
                C          Bm       Em
It's harder to follow the point of this

Em           G                    D
This broken place that I call my home
                  C          Bm      Em
Has deepened the sorrow that I have sown
              G                  D
And I can't erase what is in my heart
              C       Bm             C D Bm
I want it to finish before it starts
                                    C D Bm
My own solution insufficient again
                                        C D Bm
No false illusion this devouring threat
                                        C D C
I break the vessel giving air to its red
C            D                    Em
And open my fate to the darkened sky

(chorus)
Em                 D
I've been fading away
                          C
I've been waiting on the call to reach my veins
Bm        Em
Ready or not
                 D
No attention to waste
                     C
Every sorrow of the soul will read my name
        Bm       Em
When I cease to exist

Em           G                  D
So now I've come to the final sleep
                C           Bm      Em
I pray that forgiveness is mine to keep
             G                  D
I know it's hard to forget this man
             C        Bm        C  D  Bm
Driving the failure into your hands
                                        C  D  Bm
My own solution insufficient again
                                        C  D  Bm
No false illusion this devouring threat
                                        C  D  C
I break the vessel giving air to its red
C            D                     Em
And open my fate to the darkened sky

(chorus)
Em                 D
I've been fading away
                           C
I've been waiting on the call to reach my veins
Bm        Em
Ready or not
                 D
No attention to waste
                     C
Every sorrow of the soul will read my name
        Bm         Em  D  C
When I cease to exist
        Bm         Em  D  C
When I cease to exist
        Bm         Em
When I cease to exist
