This Falling World

Should I tell you stories
Explain the saints, the gods, the demons
of this broken place
Should I tell you how it happened
How I found myself alone
In this falling world

Everything changes..

I should send you away
I should save you from the perils
of this haunted place
I have only begun
to catch myself, no guarantees
I can keep you safe

The shifting world
Spins and spins
Ever righting itself
And there you are
in the center
of how everything changes

Should I tell you how the story ends
the shimmering brilliance of words I can't say
now the secret's revealed to me
Then it slips away

Everything changes, nothing dies
Everything is old in a new disguise
Everything's silent, nothing's heard
Everything descends in this falling world

Through the reckless wind I heard your voice
Pull me through
Calm in the center of the storm
I found you

Through the swirling darkness of my mind
You saw me, and I knew
There in the center of it all
I found you

It's only the beginning
and you have just begun to find me
in this hiding place
I can only promise
I will try my best to stay here
In this falling world

A capella

The shifting world
Spins and spins
Ever righting itself
And there you are
in the center
of how everything changes

Calm in the center of the storm
I found you
There in the center of it all
I found you

Everything changes, nothing dies
Everything is old in a new disguise
Everything's silent, nothing's heard
Everything descends in this falling world
