I Disappear

Soon I know the time is near

I'll start to slip away

Drifting through the quiet dark

But I still feel you stay

This world feels like a distant scene

I can't quite understand

I'm somewhere else but for a while

I'm holding your hand

Letting go for the first time

I've lost the strength to fight

Without you here beside me

Nothing ever feels right

Memories feel out of place

I reach but don't break through

It's not the world that's fading

It's the version of you

I'm not hiding just unwinding

Fading through the walls

Like a whisper lost in silence

When no one ever calls

The moon keeps shining overhead

Unmoved by every cry

And I still wonder why this life

Keeps passin' me by

Soon enough the pull is strong

I'm slipping from the frame

But I will keep you in my thoughts

Though nothing feels the same

If life's illusion wears too thin

And truth is hard to bear

Just know I was still with you

Before I disappeared

They say some things are meant to fade

No matter how they shine

But what we had lived in the dark

Between your world and mine

Now all I see is distance

Where your shadow used to fall

So if I disappear tonight

Don't answer when I call

No flash of light no smoke or flame

Just clarity and air

I never meant to vanish

But I can't remain elsewhere

If I can't be where you are

Then I won't pretend to stay

This story's reached its final page

I'm slowly pulled away

I'm not hiding just unwinding

Fading through the walls

Like a whisper lost in silence

When no one ever calls

The moon keeps shining overhead

Unmoved by every cry
