Falling from Heaven - Alternate Take

I write too many stories
About the same old thing
But each time these feelings come back
My soul needs a new song to sing
I don't mean to be boring
Cause you've heard this all before
But I'm taking the same portrait
And painting over with new chords
Who knew a year could last a lifetime
Just hoping someday we can say goodbye
Sometimes it feels like we're falling
Falling further from heaven
Together
And though I know I've been calling
Feels like these angels are stalling
Forever
Wondering what you've been up to
Do you still sing to pass the time
Or are you walking down the street
Waiting to please some hopeless guy
Have you made any breakthroughs
With those monsters in your mind
Or do you drink away the pain
Just like you did that August night?
Who knew a year could last a lifetime
Just hoping someday we could say goodbye
Sometimes it feels like we're falling
Falling further from heaven
Together
I don't know what to think now
Cause even though I've been calling
Feels like these angels are stalling
Forever
So if you hear this
I hope you're listening
Is your spirit just as forgiving
Running from the problem doesn't ever fix it
The truth is in the fire but you can't just reach in
Sometimes cold words can put a flame to rest
Sometimes it feels like we're falling
Falling further from heaven
Together
Sometimes it feels like we're falling
Falling further from heaven
Together
And though I know I've been calling
Feels like these angels are stalling
Forever
I don't know why I keep trying
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Why I keep falling
Always
Somebody tell me why
I can't get this out of my mind
I keep calling
No, I can't stop calling
Keep calling, keep calling, keep calling
Forever, forever, forever
