The World Has Fallen


The world has fallen,
And I've been blind. 
Take my hand,
And don't let go.
Or else I'm doomed,
To a life of darkness and flowers.
If I apologize
for being who I am,
Then could I ever really give remourse?
Don't let me see,
Don't let me fall,
Don't watch me cry,
Pick up when I call.
Take my hand,
And let go.
But only after the last beat.
After the sea has parted the ocean.
After fear takes its last breath.
After the window has broken.
Only take my breath,
Once your love for me has faded.
