In my convictions I've found my own grave But amongst the dead we all fade away Fading back into an anodyne sea For once I have stood no one will know But alone I was born and alone we must go Stand on conviction and you'll walk alone None of this

And it feels like rain, like yesterday And the clouds roll in, the sunlight fades away again And I'm so damn sure, I'm gonna close that door You'll be the first to know When I've found what I'm looking for I want to run with the sun on my face Ride

We'll never be as young as we are now (Ohohohohohoh ohohoh ohohohohohoh) As young as we are now It's time to leave this old black and white town Let's seize the day, let's run away Don't let the colors fade to gray We won't wait for tomorrow It's too

I don't want to fade away In your heart I want to stay Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you? Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back? Give me one more day, please I'd gladly do it because I'd gladly do it 'cause Give me one more day

Standing at the end of The final masquerade The light on the horizon Was brighter yesterday Shadows floating over Skies begin to fade You said it was forever But then it slipped away Tearing me apart

Like you wish you never met me I alone take the blame While you take everything Why can’t we start this over What have we done to us You say that you need closer I refuse to fade away As you try to forget me Take my heart and walk away

Baby, write this down, take a little note to remind you in case you didn't know, Tell yourself I love you and I don't want you to go, write this down. Take my words, read 'em every day, keep 'em close by, don't you let 'em fade away, So you'll remember

If I die tomorrow Your my everything You make me feel so alive As the minutes fade away I can't remember Have I said all I can say? 'Cause there's no one else, Since I found you I know its been so hard
