The Fall
Lay yourself down on a bed of nails
Guard with your life the gilded vail
Sing to the void your jaded soul
The path from us is paved in fool's gold
You seek redemption without penitence
A priceless return to innocence
So go on, tell yourself those lies
We both know it's you you despise
Tell your secrets to quiet strangers
Heed the warnings, ignore the dangers
Speak cold truths to the silent wall
An unsteady crutch against the fall
Take deep breaths until you don't
A broken heart beats 'til it don't
Ask of me what you will
I will answer still
You seek redemption without penitence
A priceless return to innocence
So go on, tell yourself those lies
We both know it's you you despise
Tell your secrets to quiet strangers
Heed the warnings, ignore the dangers
Speak cold truths to the silent wall
An unsteady crutch against the fall
Take deep breaths until you don't
A broken heart beats 'til it won't
Ask of me what you will
I will answer still
Your secrets to quiet strangers
Heed the warnings, ignore the dangers
Speak cold truths to the silent wall
An unsteady crutch against the fall
Take deep breaths until you don't
A broken heart beats 'til it don't
Ask of me what you will
I will answer still
Guard with your life the gilded vail
Sing to the void your jaded soul
The path from us is paved in fool's gold
You seek redemption without penitence
A priceless return to innocence
So go on, tell yourself those lies
We both know it's you you despise
Tell your secrets to quiet strangers
Heed the warnings, ignore the dangers
Speak cold truths to the silent wall
An unsteady crutch against the fall
Take deep breaths until you don't
A broken heart beats 'til it don't
Ask of me what you will
I will answer still
You seek redemption without penitence
A priceless return to innocence
So go on, tell yourself those lies
We both know it's you you despise
Tell your secrets to quiet strangers
Heed the warnings, ignore the dangers
Speak cold truths to the silent wall
An unsteady crutch against the fall
Take deep breaths until you don't
A broken heart beats 'til it won't
Ask of me what you will
I will answer still
Your secrets to quiet strangers
Heed the warnings, ignore the dangers
Speak cold truths to the silent wall
An unsteady crutch against the fall
Take deep breaths until you don't
A broken heart beats 'til it don't
Ask of me what you will
I will answer still
