As I Fall

Oh my dear I feared I fell too early
I had hoped to see what was just past the edge
Now I know I've lost control entirely
I could have long ago since fled
But I have heard you call my name so sweetly
I have felt an ache in me quieted
Whatever I am I'm yours completely
I will accept no other in your stead
As I fall I fall
Deeper and closer to you
With every gain I gain more to lose
As I fall from what I know and what I've known to be true
I fall deeper and closer to you
I fall deeper and closer
Your eye has measured heights of stone and iron
Each corner of the earth will bear your tread
You don't seem to fear the dark inside of me
I have left little enough unsaid
As I fall I fall
Deeper and closer to you
With every gain I gain more to lose
As I fall from what I know and what I've known to be true
I fall deeper and closer to you
I fall deeper and closer
Oh my darling I know
When I'm scared I drag my feet
And it all falls to you just like you're used to
I don't want to be that weak
So if you'll reach out to me I will fall
I'll fall I will fall
Deeper in love with you
There is nothing else I can do
As I fall from what I've known and what I've known to be true
I fall deeper in love with you
I fall deeper in love with

Let's just get this over with
Credits roll flip the blank pages at the end
I already know how this story ends
Our heroes will die
Having never found the meaning they desire
Mourned by their lovers and their friends
Who in turn die, and are forgotten
Let's just get this over with
Credits roll flip the blank pages at the end
I already know how this story ends
We'll meet in some bar
Pretend it's love and not the liquor in our hearts
Say in the morning that we'll call
And then crawl back behind our walls
I already know how this story ends
So let's just get this over with
Credits roll flip the blank pages at the end
I already know how this story ends
I already know how this story ends

Isn't it isn't it funny how things change
You're all alone in a heartbeat
Your heroes turned into deadbeats
just just just try to stay on your feet
As everything around you fades white to grey
Your stone pillars were merely clay
They cannot keep any demons at bay
So they'll have their say
And you'll choose each day from two bad options
This life's bullshit games or nothing
Because we're trapped upon this wheel
Learning what is and isn't real
Well I just think that I got a crap blend
Of brain chemicals right at hand
A twinge and then here we go again
And I descend
And then I hate the face in the mirror
And all the world seems to crystal clear
Every kindness insincere
As I live every fear
And I'll choose each day from two bad options
This life's bullshit games or nothing
Because we're trapped upon this wheel
Learning what is and isn't real
I'm on the other side in a new life
With different pain and different lies
Still chasing a fictional prize
Failing with different tries but
Isn't it Isn't it funny how things change
You'll find the reason your heart beats
And though you may not call what you find peace
You will find release
And you'll choose each day from two options
This life and it's games or nothing
Because we're trapped upon this wheel
Learning what is and isn't real
