I Fell Away

Did you see me falling down from Heaven
Breaking every bone I have
So I tried to touch the sun
I had another fall
You can do the math
I was wrong is what they'll say
I watched their smiles fade away
I watched their black and white turn gray
Their picture-perfect worlds decay today
Today I fell to Earth again, again
I guess I failed You
I guess I cannot win

Today, today
I fell away
I fell away

Did you see me falling down from Heaven
Trailing wings of melted wax
Accelerate
At nine point eight
Accept the fact I'm going to crash
And so-called friends have gone away
And all advice will cease to stay today
Today on fragile wings I tried to touch the sun
As wax and feathers melted
All my dreams have come undone today

You lift my battered soul
You mend my broken wings together
You lift my battered soul
You mend my broken bones together
