The Fall

Intro

Where we stand lies in our decisions;
In our mistakes
Eyes sealed shut,
As the sands sink further
We can’t run forever;
There’s nowhere to hide


Verse #1

Which road is the way?
Our flaws are the mark of our decay
The stars have allined,
And what we’ve held for peace, is what’s left behind



Pre chorus

Everything we’ve come to know,
Is slipping through the cracks;
We must pave the way


Chorus

We stand aside, our conscience lost;
Crawl from this shell, we must move on
We share our fate, one death for all,
We bend and we break, such dilatory minds will bring the fall
(We will bring the fall)


Verse #2

Perceive the weeds,
That grow around our feet
Beware this intersection,
Where fear and guilt meet


Pre chorus

Bless the dawn of the new day,
The day that may not come;
We must fight for rebirth


Chorus

We stand aside, our conscience lost
Crawl from this shell, we must move on
We share our fate, one death for all
We bend and we break, such dilatory minds will bring the fall


Bridge

Are we bending just to break?
Are we standing just to fall?
Is everything you’ve come to love,
Everything you’ve come to be,
Worth fighting for?
Decide while the choice is still yours.

Wearing at the edges, eaten at the core,
We must rise to the surface, and wash upon the shore
Don’t put off our extinction, time is not at hand,
Don’t be left to grieve, when the glass runs out of sand

We are left with nothing; nothing to lose


Chorus

We stand aside, our conscience lost
Crawl from this shell, we must move on
We share our fate, one death for all
We bend and we break, such dilatory minds will bring the fall

We are the fall (x2)

  • You write alot of songs and I loved this one, the topic is rare for songs and I liked the words you used and how you arranged the choruses.
    Good job!

    Love
