Lyrics Faded Youth - Rescuer

Faded Youth

Feel the years cut like stone through every promise made, every memory
And I’ll find a way to laugh as we look back to those days
And what we thought we knew
Through the static of the past we’ll squint our eyes and say
«I can see it all fading away
Fading away.»
It comes to me now as a silhouette
I’ll spend the rest of my life in the shadow of yesterdays
In the best of intentions, failure has found its home
It’s as if I’ve lost my will to grow, finding comfort in stagnant dreams
Stare into the eyes of the ones I love and find people I’ll never know
«The weight of the world is love under the burden of solitude, under the burden
of dissatisfaction.»
— Allen Ginsberg
This new progression seems more like a dead end
Like a dead end to me
