Pride in myself was something I swore would never die Gaining respect means giving up a past life The illusion crafted by my arrogance Had protected me from the wrong that I couldn't admit Now I lay across the dust-ridden floor Knowing now that regrets shouldn't be ignored Left to waste, now I see how you must have felt When the world began to change and I followed Floods of memories drown me in the abyss Ceiling fades, empty space, hanging barely from a cliff That's thousands of feet tall And now I fall Now I fall Into oblivion Landing back at the beginning of our prime We'd built ourselves and our kingdom in the summer sun One brick at a time Now those walls are nothing but rubble and dust What was once silver lining of us has turned to rust In those days when we'd fight our demons together If we had started over, oh, I wonder Would I be descending through the darkness Through the fire and the rain and the mist? Would the air fail to catch me as I failed to catch you? Would we have fallen Fallen Into oblivion? Alone in this empty room All I hear now is the ambience of our faded tune How fragile of me to break so easily Fear took the lead Now I'm still falling Falling Falling Into oblivion Into oblivion
