If I wait long enough, someone might come out
If I tried I could meet somebody else,
So I'll fol false prophets walking down my street
To keep keep me busy so soundly I'll sleep,
But it's all in the downfall of me
All in the downfall
Don't bury my feet so I can run
I'll be your mother and else,
Well I walked your steps and held my breath
Until your words reached the end
Then I lie with a poets face first in the street
When the world casts each shadow I became a she
But it's all in the downfall of me
All in the downfall
So I'll follow false prophets walking down my street
To keep keep me busy so soundly I'll sleep
So I'll lie with a poets face-first in these streets
When the world casts it's shadow I became a she
But it's all in the downfall
It's all in the downfall,
It's all in the downfall of me
All in the downfall
