Couplet:
The leaves will fall again
The wind comes crawling in
The rain with all it sin
Catches me again
The words went through my wave
Filled my soul with pain
My anger into space
Almost found his way again
Questions to embrace
Feelings that you face
In this holy land
The Desert made of quick sand
Streets that lead you there
Places of your fear
Some force pulls you in
The shadow of...
Refrein:
By the time I made the great escape
I was falling, falling, falling from heaven
And every picture that I drew I saw
You falling, falling, falling from heaven
Couplet:
From an empty face
The smile wippt away
Eyes that never see
Blind the deepest me
Act a small sharade
Words you can't explain
Silence louder than the doubt
Lingers in the sound
Refrein:
By the time I made the great escape
I was falling,falling, falling from heaven
And every picture that I drew I saw
You falling, falling, falling from heaven
I got down on my knees and pray
I was calling calling calling to heaven
Just in time I made the great escape
I was falling, falling, falling from heaven
Bridge:
If you just talk to me
If you just look at me
It will be alright
Refrein:
By the time I made the great escape
I was falling,falling, falling from heaven
And every picture that I drew I saw
You falling, falling, falling from heaven
I got down on my knees and pray
I was calling, calling, calling to heaven
Just in time I made the great escape
I was falling, falling, falling from heaven
Falling from heaven.
