I don’t laugh so much as I used to And I'm begging somebody to see The brokenness hiding behind my eyes And the demons that wrestle with me What I’d give to be telling the truth When I tell everyone I’m okay As it is all they can do is sit back And watch me as I fade The clock is broken beyond repair And there’s no stopping it now And I won’t deny that I'm really scared I need you to save me somehow As my sadness leads me to hate myself And the hatred just makes me more sad Cause when it comes to life I’ve got everything When others could carry all that they had So one last wish I’ve finally made Watch me as I fade

As I Fade (Beyond Repair)
I don’t laugh so much as I used to And I'm begging somebody to see The brokenness hiding behind my eyes And the demons that wrestle with me What I’d give to be telling the truth When I tell everyone I’m okay As it is all they can do is sit back And watch me as I fade The clock is broken beyond repair And there’s no stopping it now And I won’t deny that I'm really scared I need you to save me somehow As my sadness leads me to hate myself And the hatred just makes me more sad Cause when it comes to life I’ve got everything When others could carry all that they had So one last wish I’ve finally made Watch me as I fade
