The Sky Is Falling

When I'm alone and I'm waiting by the phone

I'm wondering what you ever did

‘Cause I never thought

I’d be this kid who just sits

Snow’s falling down

And it’s sticking to the ground

I can see it out my bedroom window

And I'm wondering

If I’ll ever know your secrets

The face of a clown keeps spinning round and round

In the blackness of my empty room

And he tells me we’ll see each other soon

Not to fear

He laughs then he cries

But I'm not afraid to die

So I look into his teary eyes

And we see through each other’s disguise

It’s all clear

The sky’s falling down

And it shatters on the ground

The rain turns into splintered ice

And the clouds that used to look so nice dissipate

The houses start to fall

Like it’s the end of it all

They crumble like they’re no more than dust

Is there anything left we can trust

We’re too late

When I'm at home and I'm sitting by the door

I'm waiting with my hand on the phone

So you’ll save me

From being all alone in this hell

But if I say I'm okay, will you ever go away

I'm living my life day to day

Not the lead in my own play

Can you tell
