Legend Of The Fall Songtext
Out of everybody
You were who I hated most
A fucking grown man
Who's afraid of ghosts
All those secrets
You could only find a way to cloak
All that venom laced in
Everything you say to folks
Drinking and laughing with that
Pathetic parade of jokes
Great insults for a guy -
Sitting with a plate of coke
With a wife and kid at home
How could you betray em both
For these stupid whores -
Where's your loyalty you made an oath - oh
Look at the results
Of a lost soul - sowing his oats
In a sea full of fucking sharks
Rowing his boat
With a hole in it plus it's dark
And you ain't got nowhere to go
And so -
You threw away every gift you had
For another Bag another fifth two a day
Sad - all those opportunities that you had
People would kill for - you threw in the trash
Low self esteem
They misconstrue it as brash
Your old selfish dream
And that ruinous wrath
That Chews you in half
Day to day On a regular basis
And you just run the other way
Whenever you face this - fact
And I'm
Getting so sick of
Your face in the mirror
There no place were it's clearer
Than there
I'm going zero to here in
Instant - still running on instinct
Can't get your dreams and my nightmares in sync
Those ghosts talk to me in my head
Yeah there still there
No they're not dead
And there was so much
Blood to be shed
But I could never kill them all
Prayers for rain to wash away
But no heaven never calls
We stay trapped in yesterday
And
That's the legend of the fall
Taking a look at you is difficult
A creature in his cups
Is ugly
Too high to keep
Reaching for the stuff
Unlovely
Off the hinges
Out on the fringes
Outsider out for revenge
And vengeance
The war never ends
But spins in the winds
And the trenches
Sensin' the bloodshed
It Begins and it ends with
Regrets you had had
Too many things to mention
And those ghosts of the past
Are a grim contingent
But What fueling the engine
There's no fooling pretending
No principles among this hard knock school We're attending
Your Willing to partake
In any rule that you bending
This land of the heartbreak
Where nobody remembers
Ya name
Unless you king or menace
The same
Between heaven and hell
I had seen your pendulum swang
Watched the hope float away
In ten inches of rain
So is it dope show today
Or penances and pain
Yeah I seen it all
Everything you ever been through
It all happened how it's supposed to
It was all essential
All the things that you endured
The bottom you descent to
It's time to let go of that past
Stop being sentimental
See I forgive you for all the shit
That you lived through
For all the shit that was done to you
Everything that you did too
Meltin' a cold heart
And stepping out of that igloo
Emerges a good man
But you was a good kid too
Those ghosts talk to me in my head
Yeah there still there
No they're not dead
And there was so much
Blood to be shed
But I could never kill them all
Prayers for rain to wash away
But no heaven never calls
We stay trapped in yesterday
And
That's the legend of the fall
You were who I hated most
A fucking grown man
