Fading

        Waterways and golden days

Smiles and laughs are quiet

        The hues of blue seem out of place

With the happiness so giant

        Pain grows weaker, sadness fades

Children play games on the shore

        More hearts, clubs, diamonds and spades

Skin is fair; arms always bare

        But sometimes the sun fades away

The blues of the river grow faded

        The greens and the yellows fade to grey

The sun's rays are fast shaded

        The cold comes in, the storms are over

Winds blow harshly; ice covers all

        No more patches full of clover

No more girls who are making dolls

        This process continues for some time

Years all pass, just like the beginning

        And for a while, all is sublime

But the children grow older, and the trees they keep hitting

        That place grows quite lonely

There is always a sort of chill

        The air now seems homely

And the trees are crying still

        Children grow up into adults

The world will turn them bitter

        None of it is ever really their fault

It's the world that's full of bitter

        Breaking, hitting, and thrashing galore

Gets nothing together; it tears us apart

        Honestly, when you get to the core

We'll always end up right where we start

        Petrified wood is still crying today

Dolls lay forgotten next to the lake

        Leaves fall off trees, and like children, blow away

So the wind and the cold always pray for their sake
