Leaves

I see the morning paper
I crumble it to bits
'Cause it's bad again

How long will it take us
To find out this is it
Till it's bad again?

The leaves are falling, the leaves are falling
Turning over and over, the leaves are turning over
Getting colder and colder, the leaves are turning over

Why do so many races
Fight while our children play?
Will we melt away?

Try and they'll take your best friend
Try and they'll take your head
For caring about, for caring about

The leaves are falling, the leaves are falling
Turning over and over, the leaves are turning over
Getting colder and colder, the leaves are turning over

Will we care again? Will we care again?

Everyone passes on and believes in what they want to
If we heal, we can feel
Something that we didn't want to

There's a sign for the time
you can read it if you want to
Or everyone will become numb

They're falling
They're falling
They're falling
They're falling
They're falling
