Fade...

My colors don't shine as brightly

They're almost gone

My outline fades

Before you notice 

And outline me again

Only to be erased

I blur along the edges

The shadows pull at me

Let them take me away

I'll soon disappear completely

I'm already half gone

I don't want to live in a world without color

I've never called out to you

I don't want to be outlined again

I don't want to stand apart

Let the waves of the ocean blend into me

Let them make me their own

Just let me go

It'll be easier that way

I'll be free

You'll be free

It's a win-win

I won't be in your way

Only my memory will survive this

Nothing else

My colors are dull 

Let them turn to black

You can't take me with you everywhere

Let me go 

Let me fade
