All Falls

All they wanted was a way out

All they wanted was someone to care about

All they got was a road back in

To a world where they were locked within


All they wanted was to see them smile

All they wanted was to be wanted once in a while

All they saw was what they could have been

In a world where they were locked within


All they wanted was to be someone different

All they wanted was to know what it meant

All they found were those who just spoke

In a world played out like a cruel joke


All they wanted was someone to hold

All they wanted was a reason to grow old

All they found was a road less travelled

To a world that just wanted to unravel


And it fell…

It fell out from beneath them

While they looked up to the stars

They were pining for their dreams

While we all got ours


All we do is watch each other

All we think we can’t say to one another

All we find is another reason to leave

From a world that only seems to deceive


All we do is what’s already been done

All we think are thoughts of that one

All we find is another walking away

In a world where we can’t find words to say


All we do is what is best for us

All we want will never be enough

All we find is another reason to fear

In a world where we’re not really here


All we do could be done by any other

All we need could be found in that lover

All we find is a road too travelled

To a world that just wants to unravel


And it all falls…

It falls out from beneath us

While we look up at the stars

We keep pining for our dreams

Trying to ignore our scars


Now all the world’s a stage

But were not all on the same page

All for one and one for none

In a world devoid of that one


All they wanted was what we have

And all we want is what they have

And it all falls…

It all just falls apart

In a world that’s clearly lost its heart
