I'm not sure why it always flows downhill 

Why broken cisterns never could stay filled 

I've spent ten years singing gravity away 

But the water keeps on falling from the sky 



And here tonight while the stars are blacking out 

With every hope and dream I've ever had in doubt 

I've spent ten years trying to sing these doubts away 

But the water keeps on falling from my eyes 



And heaven knows, heaven knows 

I tried to find a cure for the pain 

Oh my lord! to suffer like you do 

It would be a lie to run away 



So blood is fire pulsing through our veins 

We're either riders or fools behind the reigns 

I've spent ten years trying to sing it all away 

But the water keeps on falling from my tries 



And heaven knows, heaven knows 

I tried to find a cure for the pain 

Oh my lord! to suffer like you do 

It would be a lie to run away 

A lie to run, it would be a lie 

It would be a lie to run away 



It keeps on falling (x4) 

Water keeps on falling from my eyes 



And heaven knows, heaven knows 

I tried to find a cure for the pain 

Oh my lord! to suffer like you do 

It would be a lie to run away 

It would be a lie to run away 

It would be a lie to run away
