… And so you fell


well nothing broke your fall and so you fell

down like concrete angels

like a nickel to the well

dragging a wish for silence


and friends all stand around and shake their heads and ask how it could be

that nothing broke your fall and so you fell


nothing broke your fall and so you fell

a heart so heavy with the drink

like ophelia to the deep

in truth more strange than fiction


before the morning starts again

all desperate times and desperate men

still nothing broke you fall and so you fell

well nothing broke your fall and so you fell


heaven hold your broken sprit now

if that's what you believed in

from a house of brittle things

and from a room of splinters


still tiny minded thoughts i think

someone else will fix my drinks tonight

since nothing broke your fall and so you fell


well nothing broke your fall and so you fell
