Withering Away

I feel myself slipping, like petals from a vine
The colors of my life fading, no longer feeling fine
My roots they're getting brittle, I'm shrinking in this skin
The very air I breathe, it's wearing me so thin

Withering, withering away
Withering, withering away
Why does everything decay
Withering, withering away
Got no use for this decay

I used to stand so tall, now I'm barely there at all
Each moment's like a drop, that's falling from a wall

Withering, withering away
Why does everything decay
Withering, withering away
Got no use for this decay

If you see me on the ground, don't ask if I'm still sound
Just know I'm turning into the leaves that fall around
Around
Around

Withering, withering away
Why does everything decay
Withering, withering away
Got no use for this decay

The fire in my veins is now a smoldering trace
I'm just a frame with no more life to embrace

Withering, withering away
Withering, withering away
Why does everything decay
Withering, withering away
Got no use for this decay

Who are you looking
I'm just a wind howling away

Why does everything decay
Withering away
Got no use for this decay
Got no use for this decay
