Sarah McLachlan - Fallen

Heaven bend to take my hand
 

And lead me through the fire
 

Be the long awaited answer
 

To a long and painful fight
 

 

Truth be told I've tried my best
 

But somewhere along the way
 

I got caught up in all there was to offer
 

And the cost was so much more than I could bear
 

 

Though I've tried, I've fallen...
 

I have sunk so low
 

I messed up
 

Better I should know
 

So don't come round here
 

And tell me I told you so...
 

 

 We all begin with good intent
 

Love was raw and young
 

We believed that we could change ourselves
 

THe past could be undone
 

But we carry on our backs the burden
 

Time always reveals
 

In the lonely light of morning
 

In the wound that would not heal
 

It's the bitter taste of losing everything
 

That I've held so dear.

 

 

I've fallen...
 

I have sunk so low
 

I messed up
 

Better I should know
 

So don't come round here
 

And tell me I told you so...
 

 

Heaven bend to take my hand
 

Nowhere left to turn
 

I'm lost to those I thought were friends
 

To everyone I know
 

Oh they turn their heads embarassed
 

Pretend that they don't see
 

But it's one missed step
 

One slip before you know it
 

And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed
 

 

Though I've tried, I've fallen...
 

I have sunk so low
 

I messed up
 

Better I should know
 

So don't come round here
 

And tell me I told you so...
