FREEFALL

Saw your face, my own turned red,
In the night time barely seen
Hearing what the thunder said.
And all my ships were lost at sea
The ocean big and deep and green
But this can’t mean the end of me, the end of me!
Freefall. A comet in the Western skies.
Just about to close my eyes.
Freefall. I fight the game but play to win.
To live this burning love again.

Just like pleasure love’s remorse
Fastened to the lesser force.
So go passion and distain
The power of the spoken word
Just running with the ball and chain, a ball and chain.
Freefall. A comet in the Western skies.
Just about to close my eyes.
Freefall. I fight the game but play to win.
To live this burning love again.

Driven through a crack in time
Between the reason and the rhyme,
The hours churn the brass bells sing,
You throw the coins the changes ring.
The changes ring! The changes ring!
Freefall. A comet in the Western skies.
Just about to close my eyes.
Freefall. I fight the game but play to win.
To live this burning love again.

Freefall. A comet in the Western skies.
Just about to close my eyes.
Freefall. I fight the game but play to win.
To live this burning love again.
Freefall. A comet in the Western skies.
Just about to close my eyes.
Freefall. I fight the game but play to win.
To live this burning love again.
Freefall. A comet in the Western skies.
Just about to close my eyes.
Freefall. I fight the game but play to win.
To live this burning love again.
Freefall. A comet in the Western skies.
Just about to close my eyes.
Freefall. I fight the game
