Watch It Fall |
Well it’s not so easy now |
Though it never was back then |
We still can’t seem to work this out |
But you can still pretend |
And these tattered walls and burning bridges |
Quickly start to fall |
How long until there’s nothing left at all? |
I’ve been to California, man |
I’ve seen them city lights |
Been stranded in the desert |
Scorching days and freezing nights |
I’ll never understand |
Why people try to walk so tall |
How long until there’s nothing left at all? |
Don’t you love what you got used to? |
When we used to feel so free |
Won’t you wait a while in silence, love |
Watch it fall with me |
Well the old men said the great big apple |
Is rotten to the core |
With Wall Street skimming from the till |
While no one minds the store |
And how could someone get so low |
In a building so damn tall? |
How long until there’s nothing left at all? |
While chunks the size of Delaware |
Are falling off the poles |
Our heads are buried in the sand |
Our leaders dug the hole |
Like junkies hooked on fossil fuel |
Headin' for withdrawal |
How long until there’s nothing left at all? |
Don’t you love what you got used to? |
When we used to feel so free |
Come and wait a while in silence, love |
And watch it fall with me |
Now the answers in our heads |
To the questions that were asked |
It boils up from underground |
And leads us to the past |
To a place that’s long forgotten |
When we had enough for all |
How long until there’s nothing left at all? |
Don’t you love what you got used to? |
When we try to make our stand |
The hourglass is growing empty now |
Just to leave a pile of sand (Watch it fall) |
