"We Fade Away" is the tenth track from How To Destroy Angels' debut album, Welcome Oblivion. It features guest writing and performance by former Nine Inch Nails live member, Alessandro Cortini. It is worth noting that the final line, "I can't seem to tell if I am dreaming anymore," is also the final line of "Burning Bright (Field On Fire)", with the addition of the words "seem to".

Lyrics

   In disarray
   We lose our way
   We fade away
   We fade away
   We decimate
   Eradicate
   We fade away
   We fade away
   We eat your hate
   Reciprocate
   We fade away
   We fade away
   We hesitate
   We complicate
   We fade away
   We fade away
   We separate
   We isolate
   We fade away
   We fade away
   The passing day
   A shade of grey
   We fade away
   We fade away
   
   We fade away
   We fade away
   
   Please I need a little room to breathe
   Please I need a little room to breathe
   Please I need a little room to breathe
   Please I need a little room to breathe
   
   Breathe, breathe, breathe
   Breathe, breathe, breathe
   Breathe, breathe, breathe
   Breathe, breathe, breathe
   
   Am I just talking to myself? 
       
   We take the bait
   We cannot wait
   We fade away
   We fade away
   We once were great
   Exaggerate
   We fade away
   We fade away
   Obliterate 
   Intoxicate
   We fade away
   We fade away
   We used to pray
   We can't obey
   We fade away
   We fade away
   We seal our fate
   It's all too late
   We fade away
   We fade away
   We had our day
   We lost our way
   We fade away
   We fade away
   We had our say
   We lost our way
   We fade away
   We fade away
   
   I can't seem to tell if I am dreaming anymore
