Dyin' on a bed of roses in the middle of the night
Woke up in a cold dark basement, lookin' through candlelights
Up all night, still he can't come crashing down (just one more taker)
Like a ghost of 1000 miles crawlin over me.
Here's to fallin off the world's dark side.
Drifted in alone with the morning tide
Ridin' on an all night train through the crystal cave
Where the moonlight shines a path for a brighter day
When the ballrooms are all barren and evenin is so still
Could you see it in your heart to let me in?
Did they hand you the reigns only knowin you'd lose?
They lull you to sleep, take a lot to confuse
When the leaves on the trees come crashin down (don't time pass slowly)
Seasons don't change when you're spinning' around
Here's to fallin off the world's dark side.
Drifted in alone with the morning tide
Ridin' on an all night train through the crystal cave
Where the moonlight shines a path for a brighter day
When the ballrooms are all barren and evenin is so still
Could you see it in your heart to let me in?
