Life Fades Away

Danzig · Other Songs - Danzig

My time has come, the clouds are calling

December wind has come my way

And now I feel the will falling

All at once it's too late

Life fades away



The night is my wake

All thoughts slip away

And even though I must leave you

Remember I love you



I'll always be in your memory

And I will always be with you when I'm gone



Fade, life fades away

Oh yea, yea, yea, yea

Life fades away



I'm tired of tomorrow

Lost for today

I long to be

At peace forever

My eternity

And even though I will miss you

I must leave you



Fade, life fades away

Oh yea, yea, yea, yea

Life fades away



So please forgive me

And try not to cry

I long to be at peace forever more

Forever more

Oh yea, yea, yea, yea

Yea, yea, yea, yea, yea

Yea, yea, yea, yea, yea

Life fades away

Life fades away

Life fades away

Away



One last thing to say

Life fades away

Life Fades Away

Life Fades Away is a haunting track by Danzig that exemplifies the band's signature blend of gothic metal and theatrical horror. Released as part of their extensive discography, the song showcases Paul Ward's distinctive vocal style, characterized by a mix of operatic power and guttural growls that define the project's identity. The composition reflects the dark, occult themes prevalent in Danzig's work, drawing inspiration from the macabre imagery often found in their visual and musical presentations. As a standalone recording, it stands as a testament to the artist's ability to craft atmospheric soundscapes that evoke a sense of dread and introspection. The track remains a notable example of the genre's evolution, influencing subsequent acts in the black metal and gothic metal spheres through its intense emotional delivery and heavy instrumentation.
