No sleep, no escape from a mad world.
Tear drop on the face of a sad girl.
Real talk in the form of a whimper.
"Heat died down in the cold of the winter"
Go through cinders; try to find the faulty parts
Buy yourself a clue and maybe put it in a shopping cart.
You wanna shine bright and move the fantasy far
to, ironically, a city where you can't see stars.
Got to start fresh or the plan will be lost.
i said " the world may be yours but the tragedy's ours"
and "what a loss". We could turn into a tragic song.
Every day we could play Rashomon
Sacrificial days passing on
Albion be Avalon.
Turn your back and I grab your arm.
How do you disappear with the magic gone?
(chorus)
The autumn recedes with nothing more than a shrug,
while the sad girl bleeds coloured black pearl blood.
She's taking a leap but nothings ever enough
for fallen leaves to fall in love.
The autumn recedes with nothing more than a shrug,
while the sad girl bleeds coloured black pearl blood.
She's taking a lead but nothings ever enough
for fallen leaves to fall in .....
(bridge 1)
to fall in love
like autumn leaves
could fall in love
I’m on my knees
to pick you up
like fallen leaves
could fall in love
Corboe:
Her eyes say we've all been blinded
by the light our heart she can't find it
were cold as ice in her mind she vibrant
the flashy type that hides pain with silence
talking quite muttering still
a faint whisper in the dark you don't know if it’s real
it kinda hits you in the heart kid how do you feel
you’re at a fork in road I suppose spin the wheel
there’s no stepping stone no mass appeal
just a diamond in the rough with the dirt concealed
and a blank stare that repairs and heels
with that soothing touch that's as cold as steel
Its so surreal when the sad girls dancing
the way she moves in that timeless fashion
one of those sorta good for you bad habits/
you can't let go when the kiss is magic
(bridge 2)
Love
It ain't love
Although it might sound rough
that this might be lust,
well it sure ain't love
(chorus)
The autumn recedes with nothing more than a shrug,
while the sad girl bleeds coloured black pearl blood.
She's taking a lead but nothings ever enough
for fallen leaves to fall in love.
The autumn recedes with nothing more than a shrug,
while the sad girl bleeds coloured black pearl blood.
She's taking a lead but nothings ever enough
for fallen leaves to fall in .....
