The Fall

maybe I'm broken
maybe I'm wrong
I could've spoken sooner than I should have
only the good die old
that's what they told me
but I don't know

maybe I'm breaking up with myself
maybe I'm thinking I should just keep
to the things that I've been told
wait for the colors to turn to gold

do you know
do you know
you're all I know
you're all I know
when everything
comes crashing down
you're all I know
you're all I know

I'm ready for the fall
I'm ready for everything that I believed in to
drift away
ready for the leaves
ready for the colors to burn to gold
and crumble away

maybe I'm destined to be distraught
always a reason
breaking me down to my knees in the
dead of night
I keep on praying to see the light
maybe I'm breaking up with myself
maybe I'm thinking I should just keep
to the things that I've been told
wait for the colors to turn to gold

[repeat pre-chorus x2]
[repeat chorus]

you were the one (x3)
who helped me see

you were the one (x2)
oh you gave it all to me

[repeat bridge x6]

I'm ready for the fall
ready for the leaves

ready for the colors to
burn to gold and crumble away
