The Descent

I started out so starry-eyed

Full of hope and wonder

And I wore flowers in my hair

Not aware I'd been defiled



(Every time I see you) I know it's going down

(How can I believe you?) Karma comes around



I know this ride

You must be there by my side

You going down, I must be descending



I didn't want to play the song

That gave people so much hope

I turned my back and turned away

Here's the rope that made me choke



(Every time I see you) I know it's going down

(How can I believe you?) Karma comes around



You can see it in my eyes

You can read it on my face

You can hear it as I cry

God, I hope it's not too late

Can I try to make it up to you somehow?

Can I try to make it up to you somehow?



You can see it in my eyes

You can read it on my face

You can hear it as I cry

God, I hope it's not too late

Can I try to make it up to you somehow?

Can I try to make it up to you somehow?



Now my race is finally run

And as I tumble to the sun

All these dreams I can't achieve

Brought me crashing to my knees

My descent has now begun

All the music left undone



(Can I try...)

And my world, it is descending

(Can I try...)

And my world, it is descending

(Can I try...)

And my world, it is descending

(Can I try...)

And my world, it is descending

(Can I try...)

And my world, it is descending
