It's hard to make sense of how far one can drop, before you've taken the fall
And while my voice is a tremble and begs for attention, you're staying completely calm
The fighting, the crying, the hurts and the lying, the quarrels that end with a brawl
But those plain understanding, emotionless words, they really beat them all
And hope should be last to leave a soul
But yours must have left long ago
The last verse been read, the message is clear, the sentence is just a few words long
But the head is in turmoil and synapses in tinfoil, are reading the future all wrong
So your words coming down on me, like a ten-thousand feet, life-ending meteorite
Turning the forests to ashes, the ashes to clouds and the clouds into blinding light
And hope should be last to leave a soul
But yours must have left long ago
And here's to your steps into the unknown
While I fall right back to where we first came from
