[Chorus: Tyler Eads]
I'm living through the the fall, fall, fall, fall
Came for life and lost it all, all
Now it seems that fortune or fate
Took your hand and swept you away

[Verse 1: Joseph Sammuels]
Buried as you are with lost years
And dead hearts in the Valley of Kings
Never quite asleep, never fully awake
I swear the sun never sets on this place

[Chorus: Tyler Eads]
I'm living through the the fall, fall, fall, fall
Came for life and lost it all, all
Now it seems that fortune or fate
Took your hand and swept you away

[Post-Chorus: Tyler Eads & Nathan Kane]
Watching pillars crack and fall around
It lapses with grace, consumed in brilliant flame
Beneath the surface, do you hear the sound
Of a thousand lives laying under the ground?

[Verse 2: Joseph Sammuels & Tyler Eads]
I see a horizon covered in sunken cities
Old enemies now seeming so friendly
Perched whispering on my shoulders
They are standing around me
Father Time will gather his children to the tree
A traveler once said to me
That the wind dies at the end of the world
And if you listen very closely
You'll hear a story that's as old as time
The Illspring and the Well draw from the same ground
Light dies and I will miss this the most

[Chorus: Tyler Eads]
I'm living through the the fall, fall, fall, fall
Came for life and lost it all, all
Now it seems that fortune or fate
Took your hand and swept you away

[Post-Chorus: Tyler Eads & Nathan Kane]
Watching pillars crack and fall around
It lapses with grace, consumed in brilliant flame
Beneath the surface, do you hear the sound
Of a thousand lives laying under the ground?

[Bridge: Tyler Eads & Joseph Sammuels]
But the folly of man is his youth
There is no good left that the eye can see
It is a vapor in the sunlight
Valor sand slips through the hand
Many eyes to see so many truths
A man bearing down cannot hold what he's found

[Chorus: Tyler Eads]
I'm living through the the fall, fall, fall, fall
Came for life and lost it all, all
Now it seems that fortune or fate
Took your hand and swept you away

[Post-Chorus: Tyler Eads & Nathan Kane]
Watching pillars crack and fall around
It lapses with grace, consumed in brilliant flame
Beneath the surface, do you hear the sound
Of a thousand lives laying under the ground?
