Tell me why we all fall down
not a simile smile found.
Tell me where we all belong.
Can’t be here, it’s been too long.

Tell me why they don’t know me.
Tell me why they can’t believe.
Tell me where the magic’s gone.
Tell me when I lost the key.
Can’t remember what’s inside.
Help me. Open up my eyes.
I’m trying but it’s hard.

Darling, soon you ought to fall.
Trust me when I speak the truth,
looking back you’ll miss it all.

When the world was black and white
we ran between forest trees.
Just two kids, dirty bare feet.
Darling, they will steal your soul,
take all of your memories. Darling, you have lost all hope,
but there is another way.

Teach me how to fly away
to a place where we’ll be safe.
Remind me how to believe.
Take me back to forest trees.
Open the box with the key.
So happy we both will be.

Teach me how to find my name.
Teach me how to stay the same.
I don’t want to grow up yet.
Wouldn't that be amazing,
The whole world to be seen?
But time does what time does best.
Time flies out of reach.

I have grown old waiting
for you to come and save me,
and with time you slipped and fell.

You have left me all alone.
I sit by your grave crying.
Tell me why we all fall down,
not a single smile found.
Tell me where we all belong.
Can’t be here, the curse is strong.

Tell me why they forgot you.
You were the bravest one left.
Tell me why they can’t believe.
Tell me where the magic’s gone.
Tell me when I lost the key
to everything we believed.
You were my greatest treasure,
and I never got to say goodbye.

You taught me how to be brave.
You made me someone brand new.
‘guess the world got to you
and they took it all away.

You never flew me away,
but I will still cry for you.
To me, you’ll always be brave.
Tell me why we all fall down,
not a single smile found.
Tell me why you had to fall.
Tell me why you left me here.

Tell me why we all fall down,
not a single smile found.
Tell me where we all belong.
Can’t be here, it’s been too long.

Tell me why I’m suffering.
Tell me why my wings won’t work.
Tell me why I can’t fly now.
Maybe ‘cause you weigh me down.
My memories are heavy.
My body lies beside your grave,
forever forgotten.

Tell me why we all fall down.
