Lyrics

Every sound ricochets
Every word, every phrase
Every sound ricochets
Every dark silhouette
Heavy clouds in my head
Every dark silhouette
I'm walking beside myself
Just like I'm someone else
Lost in the human race
People from scary dreams
Staring from magazines
Nothing is like it seems
But sometimes it's time to let it fall
It's time to smash the crystal ball
And sometimes the pieces make you long
Wipe out the dream once and for all
It's time to let it fall
Find my feet, find the beat again
It's time to let it fall
And finally I can breathe again
It's time to let it fall
Take the cold sapphire
From my soul's empire
Take the cold sapphire
Take my robe, take my crown
All my power, all my pride
Take my whole empire
'Cause sometimes it's time to let it fall
It's time to smash the crystal ball
And sometimes the pieces make you long
Wipe out the dream once and for all
It's time to let it fall
Find my feet, find the beat again
It's time to let it fall
And finally I can breathe again
I'm walking beside myself
Just like I'm someone else
Lost in the human race
People from scary dreams
Staring from magazines
Nothing is like it seems
But sometimes it's time to let it fall
It's time to smash the crystal ball
And sometimes the pieces make you long
Wipe out the dream once and for all
It's time to let it fall
Find my feet, find the beat again
It's time to let it fall
And finally I can breathe again
It's time to let it fall
(Find my feet, find the beat again)
It's time to let it fall
(And finally it's time to breathe again)
It's time to let it fall
