Fade Away ( I Don't Want To)

Some set their hearts on a rocking chair
 The better to sleep out the days
 But I'm looking for a reason to kick and scream
 I don't want to fade away
 Fade away, fade away
 I don't want to fade away
 We think that the power is in our hands
 'Cos we're holding the remote control
 Pile up the lot and what've you got?
 Bitter-sweet nothing at all
 It's a mighty long way from my own front door
 To the world we were going to make
 We got bloodied and bruised for the old excuse
 That it's hard just staying awake
 Wake me up if you catch me falling
 Gently into the night
 Shine up my shoes 'cos I can't get used
 To the dying of the light
 Some set their hearts on a rocking chair
 The better to sleep out the days
 But I'm looking for a reason to kick and scream
 I don't want to fade away
 Fade away, fade away
 I don't want to fade away
