Fallen To The Earth

lyrics

Nacido Libre Music (ASCAP)

Lights on/ Party’s over/All the ugly for the world to see
And no one is leaving here/ No one cares but me
We dug ourselves a good time/ Look around at this place - a mess
We cried, we laughed/ But now there’s nothing left
Sometimes I wonder how it took so long to shut it down
Sometimes I wonder if a better party could have been found
Sometimes I wonder if this ever really had a chance
Maybe it don’t matter in the end/ So I just watch the people dance

Chorus:

It’s like I’ve fallen to the Earth

The music done stopped now/ Alcohol’s wearing off
How did we end up here?/ How did we get so lost?
This time there’s no day after/ Our best days are far behind
Spent all night searching for answers/ Answers we couldn’t find
Maybe looking in the wrong places/ They say folks do that for love
Looking at all the faces/ What were we thinking of?
I guess we thought it would never end/ But now look around this place
Sometimes I feel like I’m not from here/ Like I’ve fallen from outer space
Chorus

He asked me for a ride/ Sorry, but you’re already here
You’re already home/ Then he shed a tear
Those kids in the corner were right, you know/ Tried to get everyone to stop drinking
No one cared - no one listened/ What we were thinking?
Washing down indifference/ We couldn’t think about tomorrow
Live fast, and live hard/ On time we tried to borrow
But our time is up/ The party’s over
We took life for granted/ It ends in arrogance
Our only home was on this planet

Chorus
