lyrics
I couldn’t fall fast enough
The vines they grew faster, too slow to clutch
Begins with envy and ends in lust
Starts with measure and ends in none
I grew up, it started today
It’s not fault you cannot play
I’ve known your family since I was nine
Best intentions, I love them like mine
The walls began crawl and doors began to shut
It’s all in your mind, no time to wait for luck
Too bright to shine and too weak to fall
The pleasure’s all mine and the battle is won
I grew up, it started today
It’s not fault you cannot play
I’ve known your family since I was nine
Best intentions, I love them like mine
The waterfall keeps nothing the same
Rocks that transform keep the humans at bay
The palace gates are covered in rust
Marble and stone has now turned to dust
The vines they grew faster, too slow to clutch
Begins with envy and ends in lust
Starts with measure and ends in none
I grew up, it started today
It’s not fault you cannot play
I’ve known your family since I was nine
Best intentions, I love them like mine
The walls began crawl and doors began to shut
It’s all in your mind, no time to wait for luck
Too bright to shine and too weak to fall
The pleasure’s all mine and the battle is won
I grew up, it started today
It’s not fault you cannot play
I’ve known your family since I was nine
Best intentions, I love them like mine
The waterfall keeps nothing the same
Rocks that transform keep the humans at bay
The palace gates are covered in rust
Marble and stone has now turned to dust
