The Fall

I remember when you slipped away like

Sand inside the pocket, couldn't stop it once it started, babe

Sex went from a blessing to a phase

A formless expressive, plastic

Slanted, broken, bent and fitted wrong

A slo-mo' incision, you're vicious

I miss when you were my favorite song

Now I don't know the lyrics anymore

And I know we're both better off

Even though it doesn't feel that way at all

When a new one does come along

I'm just hopin' I'll be ready for the fall

I'm just hopin' I'll be ready for the fall

Yeah, wicker from the candles you would burn

I still smell your cigarettes in all my favorite shirts, but

Just another lesson I should learn

A game for the reckless, Tetris

Battleship is sunk, I'm drunk and high

My head's desecrated

My heart is still alive, yeah

I wore out all my welcomes, I'm done with bein' selfish

And I know we're both better off

Even though it doesn't feel that way at all

When a new one does come along

I'm just hopin' I'll be ready for the fall

I'm just hopin' I'll be ready for the fall

And I know we're both better off

Even though it doesn't feel that way at all

When a new one does come along

I'm just hopin' I'll be ready for the fall

I'm just hopin' I'll be ready for the fall
