Tell me did you see
where the old world broke
and all came down like
a flash of a stroke
I just heard this sound
but I don't know why
I am crying
And there are parts
on the map of the unknown
and they're tied to
the things we're never showing
and if the old rooster started crowing
would I make it
or would I fake it
I watched the blind lines of fate
pull you back every time
it's neither fair nor required
to separate from the grime
I just heard this sound
why am I crying
I watched you rise from disaster
then call yourself master
I am lucky if it goes that way for me
if the living conspires
to crank up the fires
would I make it
or would I fake it
It all depends on the angle
for what makes your angel
I've seen them fly up and fall down
just heard this sound
started crying
I heard about a forgivness
that wound up a business
in nearly every single way
hey, if the anchor goes down
to save me from ground
would I make it
or would I fake it
