some words
it's been way too long
life is no longer a song
the things i used to dance off
are the things i can't stop
i blame others too much
and my heart's cold to touch
too often i apologize for everything
and even when i'm happy, i don't want to sing
i'm falling like a leaf from a tree
falling for all the world to see
falling for one last time
this time fate is going to be mine
i'm on the ground and covered in dirt
all that fills inside me is hurt
you saw this coming i know you did
but instead of catching me, you ran and hid
here i go again, always blaming you
but you're not the only one, just one of a few
i'm falling like a leaf from a tree
falling for all the world to see
falling, hoping for jubilee
i'm falling down, won't you catch me?
" 'Cause I just want to be something more than the mud in your eyes. I want to be the clay in your hands."
