Falling down

Rolling the credits as I hit the ground beneath

Twisted ‘round

Spinning a lantern with a future changing without me

We met the end

Closing the curtain on a daydream fading to nothing

All I could do

Was watch and blur through... empty holes out of view

Again those years run on by

It sings in the sky, fighting the sun setting tonight

“Let’s go home, so we don’t

Lose our way, choosing the wrong road”

Way too scared to grab and hold in my hand

Instead I chose to hold it back

Let me hug him, let me pray

My lantern spins away

Calm in the night but blaze in red or flames

Writing a love I couldn’t say

See it pass me by, decay inside

Rot out the truth alive

And denying all you see, they write this story

“See you again” and all the same

I really didn’t want to say

All of the tears I couldn’t dry

All of my words, were lies were lies

Remaining friends, just you and me

I really didn’t want to be

Although you’re never to hear my thoughts

“Sorry and hey...I loved you a lot”

If I was wrong and so naive

Don’t lemme know, don’t let me see

Billowing tears won’t fade away

Soaking the sky in all the pain

Although I can’t return again

Although I can’t go home, the end

I’m hurting every day I found

When everything turned upside down

Aah, Still I fall, I see it all

My lantern fades and small

Words in the evening glow regretting alone

Dying my heart so very slow

Don’t forget them now, hold on somehow

With no one left around

And denying joy, repeat and write this story

Remaining friends, I couldn’t bare

I didn’t want to leave it there

Billowing tears that never reach

Soaking the sky I couldn’t breach

If this is wrong and so naive

Let me be wrong and so naive

All this time, I only thought:

“Sorry. And hey...I loved you a lot”
