Falling

I’ve fallen for far too long
The urge to taste was too strong
Everything given to me
Garden, fruit, the tree

Maybe I could take his place
Maybe I’ll make my own fate
The snake said that he’s for sure
Fallen once before

One step away from falling there is no bottom
Falling far too long

One bite and suffocate on fruit that’s rotten
Falling far too long

The choice was mine all to make
Fork tongue hiss still my mistake
Now shadows cling to my name
Heart, burning with shame

Dust beneath my restless feet
Echoes of blood so sweet
Flames guard the way that I knew
Reach for something true

One step away from falling there is no bottom
Falling far too long

One bite and suffocate on fruit that’s rotten
Falling far too long

When will we begin to fly
When will we begin to fly

One step away from falling there is no bottom
Falling far too long

One bite and suffocate on fruit that’s rotten
Falling far too
Falling far too long

So come along
Don’t want to waste it
Bite it and taste it
