Lyrics - Fading Away

🎵 Fading Away

Khmer Style

"A haunting reflection on suicidal thoughts, invisible pain, and the quiet fight to keep living. 'Fading Away' gives voice to the internal battles that too often go unseen."

I sat in a room that felt too small The walls were closing, I felt nothing at all The world kept spinning, but I stood still Trapped inside the silence, trapped inside my will I saw my reflection, but I wasn’t there Just a shadow in the empty air No one noticed, no one cared I could scream, but they wouldn’t hear Would they miss me if I disappeared Would they cry if I was no longer here I was tired, I was breaking Every thought kept suffocating "ខ្ញុំចង់ចាកចេញពីទុក្ខសោកទាំងឡាយ" ("I thought about leaving") I was fading, fading away Like a ghost, lost in the grey A voice inside said “just let go” But another whispered “no, hold on” I was breaking, drowning inside No one saw the war in my mind I was fading, fading away But something told me stay I wrote my pain in lines unseen On pages torn from silent screams No one knew the war I fought Every breath felt like a battle lost I thought about the final step If I let go, would they forget Would my name fade into dust Did I matter, was I enough Would they miss me if I disappeared Would they cry if I was no longer here I was tired, I was breaking Every thought kept suffocating "ខ្ញុំចង់ចាកចេញពីទុក្ខសោកទាំងឡាយ" ("I thought about leaving") I was fading, fading away Like a ghost, lost in the grey A voice inside said “just let go” But another whispered “no, hold on” I was breaking, drowning inside No one saw the war in my mind I was fading, fading away But something told me stay And in the silence, I heard my breath Still alive, not gone yet Maybe pain is just a storm And after rain, the sun is born I don’t know why I stayed that night Why I fought, why I survived But maybe somewhere down the line I’ll find the reason I’m still alive "ខ្ញុំនៅតែរស់នៅ" ("I’m still alive") I was fading, fading away Like a ghost, lost in the grey But something told me stay
