Things Fall Apart
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Came into the darkness from out of the blue
I don't know much, but I know what to do
Froze in my mind, I believed it so long
Alright, I'll admit I was wrong
Stay out of my nightmares, stay out of my dreams
You're not even welcome in my memories
Things are alright and I want what I've got
(It's only momentarily thought)
Fade out (8x)
If no one thinks of no one
Then no one believes in no one
And no one fucks with no one
Then no one's afraid of no one
We've all seen enough, now it's time to decide
The meekness of love or the power of pride
It doesn't matter if you're good or smart
God damn it, things fall apart
Let's go for a walk. yeah, let's go for a drive
Don't know how to say, thanks for being alive
Let's go for a lifetime. let's go for a fling
Don't know how to say anything
