Watch It Fall Song Lyrics
Well, it’s not so easy now though it never was back then
We still can’t seem to work this out but we can still pretend
And these tattered walls and burnin’ bridges just quickly start to fall
How long until there’s nothin’ left at all?
******
I’ve been to California man, I’ve seen them city lights
Been stranded in the desert, scorching days and freezing nights
I’ll never understand why people try to walk so tall
How long until there’s nothin’ left at all?
******
Don’t you love what you got used to
Where we used to feel so free?
Won’t you wait a while in silence love
Watch it fall with me
******
Well, the old man said the great big apple’s rotten to the core
With wall street skimming from the till while no one minds the store
And how could someone get so low in a building so damn tall?
How long until there’s nothin left at all?
******
While chunks the size of Delaware are falling off the poles
Our heads are buried in the sand, our leaders dug the holes
Like junkies hooked on fossil fuels heading for withdrawal
How long until there’s nothin left at all?
******
Don’t you love what you got used to
Where we used to feel so free?
Come and wait a while in silence love
And watch it fall with me
******
Now the answer’s in our heads to the question that were asked
It boils up from underground and leads us to the past
To a place that’s long forgotten when we had enough for all
How long until there’s nothin’ left at all?
*******
Don’t you love what you got used to
Where we tried to make our stand?
The hourglass is growing empty now
Just to leave a pile of sand…..
Watch It Fall Song Chords
Well it’s not so easy now
Though it never was back then
We still can’t seem to work this out
But you can still pretend
And these tattered walls and burning bridges
Quickly start to fall
How long until there’s nothing left at all?
I’ve been to California, man
I’ve seen them city lights
Been stranded in the desert
Scorching days and freezing nights
I’ll never understand
Why people try to walk so tall
How long until there’s nothing left at all?
Don’t you love what you’ve got used to?
When we u-used to feel so free
Won’t you wait a while in silence, love
Watch it fall with me
Well the old men said the great big apple
Is rotten to the core
With Wall Street skimming from the till
While no one minds the store
And how could someone get so low
In a building so damn tall?
How long until there’s nothing left at all?
While chunks the size of Delaware
Are falling off the poles
Our heads are buried in the sand
Our leaders dug the hole
Like junkies hooked on fossil fuel
Headin’ for withdrawal
How long until there’s nothing left at all?
Don’t you love what you’ve got used to?
When we u-used to feel so free
Won’t you wait a while in silence, love
Watch it fall with me
Now the answers in our heads
To the questions that were asked
It boils up from underground
And leads us to the past
To a place that’s long forgotten
When we had enough for all
How long until there’s nothing left at all?
Don’t you love what you’ve got used to?
When we try to make our stand
The hourglass is growing empty now
Just to leave a pile of sand
