Lyrics
Fade to black
Fade to black
When it comes to life
I don' have the knack
I want to close my eyes and just
Fade to black

Fade to black
Fade to black
Don't want something dramatic
Don't want to have a heart attack
I want to close my eyes and just
Fade to black

Well all I did was work and tell the truth
Didn't cause no trouble
Didn't have a miss spent youth
They said all you had to do was be good and try
Now I'm finding out too late that that's just a lie

Fade to black
Fade to black
When it comes to life
I don' have the knack
I want to close my eyes and just
Fade to black

Fade to black
Fade to black
Don't want something dramatic
Don't want to have a heart attack
I want to close my eyes and just
Fade to black

Everyday I try to give my best shot
Try to think it might get better
But I know it will not
Life it has become one big bore
Everyone says "give me more"

Fade to black
Fade to black
When it comes to life
I don' have the knack
I want to close my eyes and just
Fade to black

Fade to black
Fade to black
Don't want something dramatic
Don't want to have a heart attack
I want to close my eyes and just
Fade to black

Looking around at all the half empty cups
Got a bunch of downs but where are the ups?
I guess every life can't be equally blessed
Just wondering mine seems so messed

Fade to black
Fade to black
When it comes to life
I don' have the knack
I want to close my eyes and just
Fade to black

Fade to black
Fade to black
Don't want something dramatic
Don't want to have a heart attack
I just want to close my eyes and
Fade to black

Beautifully
done. Excellent playing and vocal. I think it's easier to write when you're feeling down - I too can relate to these lyrics.
