It Wont Fade Lyrics
You borrowed the moment, betray your own heavens
The darkness is thickening, breathing is harder
[Balance is off], some take more than give back
That attitude, ignorance, proved to be fatal
With that tiny spark, that lit our way,
You poisoned the ash and you stayed away
His wish to be one of us, follow the trail
Take the time offered, don't toss it away
Requesting no trial, defendant is guilty,
And we are the judges and sentence the jury,
To pay for forgiveness with silent contentments
Stand in the line with the rest of us
We cannot carry you further today
Hear what you don't say
That's help in many ways
Need you to learn how to cry without darkness
Face like the others the pain that is harmless
[Chorus:]
Feel the world has let you down
Somehow we cannot see this
Have to bear the winter burn
You can only wait (?)
It will fade with time
Secrets in silence, the stench of treason
To blow off the darkness you brought in the daylight
They'll kill you, must kill you, there's no such mercy
Rules of the nature are fair and cruel
We cannot wait for you
For Him, or forever,
Don't make us walk away
Packs stay together
Fear will be justified
(Will be there a soul?)
Things that you do will affect us too
[Chorus;]
Feel the world has let you down
Somehow we cannot see this
Have to bear the winter burn
You can only (?) fate
It will fade with time
Where's your trust?
Where's your heart?
Where's your soul?
Who's your friend?
Who'll be there in the end?
Who do you call a friend?
Should we start to believe?
A lot of things are changing
And rearranging
I have to say I saw it coming
Yet did nothing
In the darkest of times
We all (?) in the right (for the moon)
(The floor) shared the idea
To give you the chance to free us again
to bite off the feeding hand
Counting one to see
what's defying gravity
[Solo]
(Well, would a) well-fed puppy?
You are too confident and careless to cut it
Had no rules, that is to change
Are you forever run alone?, you never will
The little child of the wild,
You gotta skin great coats, bake hate,
No, you cannot hide behind your glowing lights
You bear the sign and it won't fade
It won't fade
[Chorus:]
Feel the world has let you down
Somehow we cannot see this
Have to bear the winter burn
You can only (?)
It will fade with time
The darkness is thickening, breathing is harder
[Balance is off], some take more than give back
That attitude, ignorance, proved to be fatal
With that tiny spark, that lit our way,
You poisoned the ash and you stayed away
His wish to be one of us, follow the trail
Take the time offered, don't toss it away
And we are the judges and sentence the jury,
To pay for forgiveness with silent contentments
Stand in the line with the rest of us
Hear what you don't say
That's help in many ways
Need you to learn how to cry without darkness
Face like the others the pain that is harmless
Feel the world has let you down
Somehow we cannot see this
Have to bear the winter burn
You can only wait (?)
To blow off the darkness you brought in the daylight
They'll kill you, must kill you, there's no such mercy
Rules of the nature are fair and cruel
We cannot wait for you
For Him, or forever,
Don't make us walk away
Packs stay together
(Will be there a soul?)
Things that you do will affect us too
Feel the world has let you down
Somehow we cannot see this
Have to bear the winter burn
You can only (?) fate
Where's your heart?
Where's your soul?
Who's your friend?
Who'll be there in the end?
Who do you call a friend?
Should we start to believe?
And rearranging
I have to say I saw it coming
Yet did nothing

The little child of the wild,
You gotta skin great coats, bake hate,
You bear the sign and it won't fade
It won't fade
Feel the world has let you down
Somehow we cannot see this
Have to bear the winter burn
You can only (?)
It will fade with time

This is said to be Unia's "wolf" song. While Full Moon was about a werewolf, Wolf and Raven and The Cage seemed to be about imprisonment, and Ain't Your Fairytale appears to be about being hunted, It Won't Fade is about betrayal.
Actually, these lyrics are wrong it should be: You borrow the moment, betray your own heavens The darkness is thickening, breathing gets harder The balance is off, some take more than give back, the attitude, ignorance, proved to be fatal
for that tiny spark that led our way you poisoned the air, should you stay away, hence Wish to be one of us, follow the trail Take the time offered, don't toss it away
travesty, no trial, defendant is guilty and we are the judges and sentence the jury to pay for forgiveness with silent contentment Stand in the line with the rest of us
We cannot carry you further today hear what you don't say, thus help... in any way Need you to learn how to cry without darkness Face like the others the pain that is harmless
Feel the world has let you down somehow, we cannot see this Have to bear the winterburn You can only wait, if it will fade with time
Secrecy, silence, a stench of treason the glow of the darkness, you brought in the daylight The cure will not kill you, there's no such mercy. rules of the nature are fair and cruel...
we cannot wait for you, for limbo, forever don't make us walk away, packs stay together Fear would be justified. Will be there soon. The things that you do will infect us too
Feel the world has let you down somehow, we cannot see this Have to bear the winterburn You can only wait, if it will fade with time
Where's your trust, where's your heart, where's your soul? Who's your friend? Who'll be there in the end?
Who do you call a friend... should we start to bewail?
a lot of things are changing and re-arranging I have to say I saw it coming yet did nothing... In the darkest of times B.o.B's earn the right for the name
Not all shared the idea to give you the chance to fail us again, to bite off the feeding hand...
counting one, two...see? odds defying the gravity...
we'll move along, well fed puppy... you are too confident and careless to cut it had no rules, that is to change or you'll forever run alone
but you never will, the little child of the wild you've got a skin, gray coat, they hate no, you cannot hide behind your glowing eyes you bear the sign and it won't fade
my bad! just copied and pasted from a site. added too many lyrics at that time to listen to all the songs and see that they were correct
I'd have thought The Vice is UNIA's wolf song.
Yes, lyrics are wrong, but I don't see any way of fixing them, so, oh well.
This song is starting to make a lot more sense to me. What I understand of it it has to do with a wolf clan and the heir of the clan is a young wolf who doesn't follow any of the traditions of the clan because he believes them to be wrong. The elders want him to see that he has a burden - to carry on the name of the clan ("B.o.B's earn the right to the name" is the most important line in the song supporting this) and that no matter what he does, it will never change ("It Won't Fade") because this is his role in life.
Very self explanatory, I don't see why people are having so much trouble with this one.
Already posted this, but here it is again:
This song is starting to make perfect sense, and I think it's really self explanatory when you read through the lyrics. From what I understand of it it has to do with a wolf clan and the heir of the clan is a young wolf who doesn't follow any of the traditions of the clan because he believes them to be wrong. The elders want him to see that he has a burden - to carry on the name of the clan ("B.o.B's earn the right to the name" is the most important line in the song supporting this) and that no matter what he does, it will never change ("It Won't Fade") because this is his role in life.
FWIW, The Vice has NOTHING to do with wolves or animals of any sort.
Some ppl think this song is about Jani's leaving,behind the wolf's story.What do you think of this?

It obviously isn't... intentionally. Why would Jani play and sing on a song about his own treachery?
But heck if the lyrics don't fit perfectly. Every single line could be attributed to the situation with Jani. It's disturbing.
The song is related in wolf vs dogs. Tony said so, check the Sonata forum. What I understood was that there was a break in the past and a couple of wolves were separated from the others. These ones are tamed by humans. Check: "You cannot hide behind your glowing eyes You bear the sign and it wont fade" Its obvious that it is related to dogs. That's also a good explanation to the word "Travesty" in the song (Travesty, no trial, defendant is guilty)
