Fallen

Let's rip up those old floorboards

And pull out that beating heart

'Cause, darling, it's been taunting you ever since the very start

And however did we come this far, only to find it wouldn't last?

Did you see it in the beginning?

Do you think we went too fast?

Now I lie here broken

These walls are closing in

How do I trust the beating rhythm

That always causes me to sin?

So throw out your old wishes

Toss each dream aside

We've fallen and forgotten

And when we spoke, we lied.
