Lyrics
I knew that I was falling
I am falling
I keep falling
And she's calling me back to face the music once again.
Oh the pauper sold his precious
For the treasures
He can never embrace within his arm but still again he'll pay again
Forever sent into a hollow
Wherever we may follow
Brings us closer to the day
When all reward has gone away
And if I call to her in anguish
Will she all my pain extinguish
Is this the cost of treason
Or her silent voice of reason
I knew that I was falling
I am falling
I keep falling
And she's calling me back to face the music once again.
-La da die-
The muse to me is calling
She is calling
Hear her calling
But the haunting of her voice it leaves me in a shallow grave
Hear the gallows at my heart string
It's a cold thing
To be reeling
From the absence of the sound she makes when calling out my name
Forever sending to imprison
Such a love so nearly risen
Fade away into the foggy mist of empathetic sigh
For she knows not what she plunders
When she takes the passion under
Now to carry on without her
Or to even want to try
I knew that I was falling
I am falling
I keep falling
And she's calling me back to face the music once again.
