When You Fall

Starting so small, where did it go wrong
Which step along the way
Get a grade and a job and losing the song
Not the only price you pay
When you’re tired and lonely and trying your best
And nothing works out at all
Just the way it goes, planting seeds for a jest
Or so you say when you fall
Travel the world, seeing every single thing
Much deeper than compare
No matter where you go, the same old ring
On the streets or in the mirror
When you’re tired and lonely and trying your best
And nothing works out at all
Just the way it goes, planting seeds for a jest
Or so you say when you fall
Try to save the world, with everything you have
At the end of the road
Not enough, too early, hidden numbers in the math
Ending where nobody goes
When you’re tired and lonely and trying your best
And nothing works out at all
Just the way it goes, planting seeds for a jest
Or so you say when you fall
Getting late, just one more time around
Will I make it free
If I don’t at least I can say I wasn’t bound
Or at least, that I could see
When you’re tired and lonely and trying your best
And nothing works out at all
Just the way it goes, planting seeds for a jest
Or so you say when you fall
