Lyrics

The Fall

It's been this way so long
I've forgotten what I'm crying for
I keep my distance to escape the pain
But I know we've been
Down this road before
And it's as lonely as it's ever been

You've been this way so long
I've forgotten what I'm fighting for
You keep me questioning everything
But I know we've been down this road
A thousand times before
And I can feel it getting cold again

Chorus
I set myself up for the fall
When I try to convince myself that love
Can conquer all
If it's true that faith can help
Us rise above it all
Then why does the love for which we'd die
In time move on

So much resistance
In keeping with the promises
We keep pretending we can feel a change
Oh but I know, and I know you know
It's no better than before
Can you feel it turning

So I'll wait
I'm headed for the fall
I'll wait
Can faith help us rise above
I'll wait
Can love conquer all?
