Things Fall Apart

Sound of thunder running down the plain
The voice of the storm calling out my name
I often wonder what this is all about
Riding storms, there's really no way out
Things fall apart, I've been left alone
The sky is dark, my dreams have come undone
They're scorched and torn, blackened and burned
Ashes in the wind, the tides never turned

This feeling I'm having, I sensed it before
The cycle repeats, today, tomorrow, forevermore
Lightning strikes twice, rip out my heart
It kills me again, oh how things fall apart
Like a tower of glass shuttering to
A million jagged pieces, reflections of you
No matter how hard to stop it I try
The verdict is out, my hopes have to die

The storm is upon me, it’s that time again
Time for suffering, for loss and for pain
My life stands still, I can’t just move on
Things fall apart, I feel buried and gone
Twisting and turning, I can’t really sleep
My wounds are now burning, the cuts were too deep
The nightmares are coming, like needles and pins
Piercing your mind, known are your sins

I'm loosing my mind, demented my laugh
Standing on the edge, no stars on my path
An endless thick veil, no light shining through
Things fall apart, there's nothing to do
My vision is clouded, my hearing is dampened
The rain is my brother, by others forgotten
Falling forever, that's how it should be
The storm calls out, let go and be free...
