There's a girl on a ledge she's got nowhere to turn'Cause all the love that she had was just wood that she burnedNow her life is on fire, it's no one's concernShe can blame the world or pray till dawn But only love can break her fallBreak her fallYeah, only love can break her fall, fall It's like she lost her invitation to the party on earthAnd she's standing outside hating everyone hereYeah, she's her own disease, crying to her doll But only love can break her fallBreak her fallOnly love can break her fall, yeah Yeah fallThe world is her fall, break her fallLove, love, love can break her fallNow only love can break her fallLove, love, can break her fall, fallLove, love can break her fallOnly love can break her

It's out of my hands making your hands meetStumble as it's crumbling out of reachIt's in the cards of destiny your sanity in tow Designate my luckUh, resignate This power has no roots to guide, no roleTrust me, rusted minds refuse to goUnwillingness is meaningless to walk away in vain Designate my willAh, designate my fillAh, resignate My will is crashing, synapses flashing slowAh, days like frame by frame, where do they go?Ah yeah, why fight? Forget it, cannot spend it after I go Roll them highThrow them againAll gods' dice Monkey driven, call this the living? Ha.Ah, too much thought it's overwrought a holeYeah, minding yours what's mine not yoursWill finish us off Ah, designate my lifeAh, designate my viewAh, resignate my will, my will, my will, I willResignate my God

I've used hammers made out of woodI have played games with pieces and rulesI've deciphered tricks at the barBut now you're gone I haven't figured out why I've come up with riddles and jokes about warI figured out numbers and what they're forI've understood feelings and I've understood wordsBut how could you be taken away? And wherever you've gone and wherever we might goIt don't seem fair, today just disappearedYour light's reflected now, reflected from afarWe were but stones, your light made us stars With heavy breath, awakened regretsBack pages and days alone that could have been spentTogether, but we were miles apartEvery inch between us becomes light years now No time to be void or save up on lifeOh, you got to spend it all And wherever you've gone and wherever we might goIt don't seem fair, you seemed to like it hereYour light's reflected now, reflected from afarWe were but stones, your light made us stars And wherever you've gone and wherever we might goIt don't seem fair, today just disappearedYour light's reflected now, reflected from afarWe were but stones, your light made us stars

Don't feel like homeHe's a little outAnd all these words aloneIs nothing like your poem Putting in, inputting inDon't feel like methadoneA scratching voice all aloneIt's nothing like your baritone It's nothing as it seemsThe little that he needs, it's homeThe little that he seesIs nothing he can seize, it's home One uninviting chromosomeA blanket like the ozone It's nothing as it seemsAll that he needs is homeThe little that he freesIs nothing he believes Saving it for a sunny daySomething maybe, two toneAnything of his ownA chip off the corner stone Who's kidding? Rainy dayA one way ticket headstoneAn occupation's overthrownA whisper through a megaphone It's nothing as it seemsThe little that he needs, it's homeThe little that he seesIs nothing he concedes, it's home And all that he freesA little bittersweet, it's homeIt's nothing as it seemsThe little that he sees, it's home

There's a light when my baby is in my armsThere's a light when the window shades are drawnHesitate when I feel I may do harm to herWash it off, 'cause this feeling we can share And I know she's reached my heart in thin air Byzantine is reflected in our pondThere's a cloud, but the water remains calmReaching in, the sun's fingers clutch the dawn to passEven out, it's a precious thing to bear And I know she's reached my heart in thin airYes, I know she's reached my heart in thin air It's not in my past to presumeLove can keep on moving in both directionsHow to be happy and trueIs the quest we're taking on together Taking on, on, on, on, onTaking on, on, on, on, on There's a light when my baby's in my arms And I know she's reached my heart in thin airAnd I know she's reached my heart in thin airAnd I know she's reached my heart in thin airYes, I know she's reached my heart

All in all, it's no one's faultexcuses turn to carbon wallsBlame it all on chemical intercourse The swallowed seeds of arroganceBreeding in the thoughts of ten-Thousand fools who fight irrelevance The full moon is dead skinThe one down here is wearing thinSo set up the ten pinsAs the human tide rolls inLike a ball that's spinning Bombs dropping downOverhead, undergroundIt's instilled to wanna live Bombs, dropping downPlease forgive our hometownIn our insignificance "Turn the jukebox up," he said,Dancing in irreverance"Play C3, let the song protest." The plates begin to shiftPerfect lefts come rolling inI was alone and far awayWhen I heard the band start playingOn the lip, late take off Bombs dropping downOverhead, undergroundIt's instilled to wanna live Bombs, dropping downPlease forgive our hometownIn our insignificance Feel like resonance of distanceIn the blood, the iron lies It's instilled to wanna live Bombs, dropping downPlease forgive our hometownIn our insignificanceIn our insignificance

All my rivals will see what I have in storeMy gunI've been harboring fleets in this reservoirRed sunAnd this nation's about to explode Your disciples are riddled with metaphorsWell hungBetter pony up and bring both your barrels fullNot oneAs we release this unspeakable toll, wooh How's our mother to damn these contributors?With mudHow will the man who made chemicals difficultShed blood?How's our father supposed to be told?I don't, oh
