Fallen

Yep more lyrics, this time Sarah McLachlan. It's funny that I've probably listened to this hundreds of times with no effect and yet today the lyrics stuck. Maybe it has to do with this shift in me and the way I'm feeling about facing the world or maybe it has to do with that I can finally admit that yes I've fallen and yes I will again but I am going keep on getting up and maybe one day I wont fall again. :)

Fallen
Sarah McLachlan

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 have 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
The lonely light of morning
The wound that would not heal
It's the bitter taste of losing everything
That I have held so dear.

I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I have 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 have messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...
