Fallen

yesterdays are numbered

in many ways we could see the fall coming

but lull prolonged, some will never belong

so children age into prisons

they establish shame with their poor inheritance

they build covert roads

some become addictions

suspicion, in position

yeah it's bound to have been

i guess i thought you were going to be around

going to be rewound

but you were honest

i know you did the best one can

fallen

people speak of demons

to simplify the life then honor you my friend

they rationalize trouble-free hypothesis

he's broken, too damaged, but bravely profound

i guess i thought you were going to astound

going to stand your ground

but you were full pride

i know it killed you to fail them

fallen

hey, dog boy

the whistmas souls would deploy

you needed them, believed in them

it's better to pretend

i guess i thought it was your rising

you're long drawn out win

'cause you were on it

i know you did the best one can

i thought you'd be around

i thought you'd be rewound

but everyone succumbs to some

we are all fallen
