Seether – Fade Away

• 0
  Lyric Correction:I know the whole internet seems to have gotten this wrong, but it's really the only way the lyric makes any sense and it's also what he actually says in the music:
  
  "Today's the day we'll find our way *home*"
  NOT
  "Today's the day we'll find our way grown"
  
  Listen closely. Some intern or something must have screwed it up in the CD book or something

  General Comment:Ok so really im probably wrong with my interpetation because this song applys to my current situation. I think the song is about a relationship where its been on and off for awhile. Well he goes back to her another time and she pushes him away he feels helpless he pretty much wants to be her everything. But slowly he realizes the relationship is fadeing away his pain is so bad he is almost hopeful it will fade away. And in the last verse that says
  
  "But Im coming back, and Im taking back everything I can Its breaking me up and tearing me up
  Its all I have"
  
  He knows he will be back because the distance from her is too great even though he knows the relationship will only hurt him in the end but he feels his relationship with her is the only thing he has and can count on to be there no matter how unhappy he is.

  General Comment:i think this song is about a guy who is in love with a girl, but he knows that for some reason they cant be together. He wants, wishes that he could be her everything, wishes he could be there for her. Even at the bridge, he has a moment where he convinces himself that theres still a chance. just the last glimmer of hope. But then it falls away with the final repetition of the chorus. No matter how strong the feelings between the two of them are, it never would be able to work, so it was time to fade away. They had to let go.
  i think that the "todays the day we find our way, grown" relates to two people maturing or changing and growing apart, so that even though the love was there, they are both new people and the relationship had died as they changed.
  Just my opinion :)

  General Comment:i love this song as everybody else has said and i just love the feel of it. i'm still confused to the meaning, to me its about a guy who was in love with a girl who wasn't in love with him and this is his love song to her, maybe something traumatic happened to her and she left him but he wants her back and wants her to know that he's there for her but she doesn't trust anymore. well now i'm just going off on some long story, it'd make a good song u have to admit tho lol

  General Comment:"'Today's the day we'll fade away.' to me means that this boy and girl are finally able to fade away from the harsh world of feeling alone, that they're there for eachother."

  General Comment:i agree munky boyy (apart from the juggalo bit). it\'s about an (as yet) unrequited love. he really cares about this person and want\'s to be in a relationship, wants to love her :
  I wanna be there when you call
  I wanna catch you when you fall
  I wanna be the one you need
  I wanna be the one you breathe
  
  I wanna be there when you cry
  And when you’re down I’ll help you fly
  I wanna be the one you need
  I wanna be the one you breathe
  
  and it\'s messing up his emotions
  \'It’s breaking me up and tearing me up
  It’s all I have\'
  
  I\'m not exactly sure about the rest, the \'taking it back\' bit (maybe he\'s going to take back his pride by asking her); or the fade away bit (maybe he\'s given up and wants her to fade out of memory- but thats a bit depressing; how bout they fall in love and fade away together. and live happily ever after.*)
  
  
  *I wanted to put a hopeful spin on it because i\'m in a similar situation with a girl; this song, and a few others remind me of her! (I\'m a sad arse I know it)
