False prophecies
Let's break down the walls,
private dynasties
will he let us fall?
Public diaries
waiting for us to answer,
Steady stuttering
and I need to know,
[chorus]
falling from rock bottom
waiting for a time to speak,
in need of wisdom
and I don't know what to believe,
as far as I know,
there's nowhere to go,
No man is hidden in the clouds,
now let me fall down....
there's no one up there...
Hidden in the open
but eyes can't see,
truthfully misspoken
expect me to believe?
carry on unnoticed
waiting for a proper chance,
it'll never come as long
as we're in his trance...
[chorus]
falling from rock bottom
waiting for a time to speak,
in need of wisdom
and I don't know what to believe,
as far as I know,
there's nowhere to go,
No man is hidden in the clouds,
now let me fall down....
there's no one up there...
Intentional mistakes
don't work in overcast,
afternoon moonlight
waiting in my past,
insignificant movements
don't get me where I wanna be,
last chance at a first impression,
I'm really sorry if you can see,
[chorus]
falling from rock bottom
waiting for a time to speak,
in need of wisdom
and I don't know what to believe,
as far as I know,
there's nowhere to go,
No man is hidden in the clouds,
now let me fall down....
there's no one up there...
Future memories
of a hard, rocky past,
verbal vitamins
even though they'll never last,
everyday miracle
what do you want me to see?
healthy ignorance
a mold of what you want me to be?
mocking through empathy
unable to stand,
unintentional triumphs
just another half empty glass...
[chorus]
falling from rock bottom
waiting for a time to speak,
in need of wisdom
and I don't know what to believe,
as far as I know,
there's nowhere to go,
No man is hidden in the clouds,
now let me fall down....
there's no one up there...
there's no one up there...
there's no one up there...

do you have music to these songs? i'm just assuming this is the same one who submitted truth behind lies. if i'm wrong forgive me, but... if you have any recordings i'd love to hear them!
and on the aside... if you just write songs but don't perform them or whatever... i would be honored to cover them
lovely write. your work is powerful, moving, and honest. i like that. -
