fading away
turning to gray
like ashes to ashes
i'll soon blow away
mortality reigns
bringing me pain
diminishing life
i ne'er will regain
why must it be
this exit of me
leaving no mark
here in the dark
before i go
i want you to know
i'm thankful for you
and all that you do
yes i fear
i'm barely here
not much left to say
i'm fading away!
