                            Em
into the fog where no one notices

the contrast of white on white.

And in between the moon and you

the angels get a better view

of the crumbling difference between wrong and right.

through myself and back again

        C/G                               D
and she walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land

           Em                        G
like she's walking on a wire in the circus

She parks her car outside of my house

Round here we're carving out our names

Round here we talk just like lions

but we sacrifice just like lambs

can't you see my walls are crumbling?"

Would you catch me 'cause I'm falling
