I am fading away
The world goes on around me
But I am still in pain

I say I am hungry
You tell me to eat
I say that I cannot

I say I am tired
You tell me to sleep
I say that I cannot

You try to cheer me up
You try to take away
What's driving me insane

I am fading away
I see the world
In black and white

It's not in grayscale
There's no in between
It's just black and white

There's no colors
They've all faded to gray
There's no expression

I am a zombie
Unaware of what goes on around me
Living in my own depressing world

No one can help me
I won't let them
It will always be this way

I am fading away.
