I place my foot on the first step

That leads me down into my fate

So father please forgive me

As I cannot see it end

I am now up on the table

It trembles under my weight

I wipe away the cold sweat

Close my eyes and...

(Falling) out of what I know is true

(Falling) come shelter me as I lie here bleeding

(Falling) away from what I thought was you

(Falling) come shelter me as I lie here bleeding

So speak and I listen

I’ll take the time to hear you out

So scream and I sure listen

I just need a little time

Gathering the pieces of a stronger me

Helpless weak and battered

My wounds are bleeding

(Falling) out of what I know is true

(Falling) come shelter me as I lie here bleeding

(Falling) away from what I thought was you

(Falling) come shelter me as I lie here bleeding

Gathering the pieces of a stronger me

Helpless weak and battered

My wounds are bleeding

(Falling) out of what I know is true

(Falling) come shelter me as I lie here bleeding

(Falling) away from what I thought was you

(Falling) come shelter me as I lie here bleeding...
