Lyrics
Lookin at pretty youth, vain discrepancies in its' truth-what was then ans who is now...fall all around me now...
Endless judgement and the hardest heart belongs to you...when will you let down the gate and let something pure come through? Into your idle hands- forgive your mistakes and drown your sins...it's a fallen world- a fallen world that we're all in- so why not begin again?
I'm not listening anymore to ringing indictments calling through the years...from a country long forgotten and no longer here....
Does it ever feel like you can't catch up to who- you saw as your best self? But all the old whispers in your ear- don't have to keep you here.. and now I see the shadow in you was drawn by the shadow in me...the false promise of some salvation for free- everything I paid for- everything I paid for is worth the cost to me...it's fallen world a fallen world we're all in- so why not begin again?
