Words and language are often considered faded metaphors because they may not fully capture the depth of an experience or concept. Language can only provide an approximation of reality, leading to a sense of inadequacy in conveying the true essence of what is being described. Metaphors, once original and impactful, can become overused and lose their power over time, hence the term "faded metaphor."
