Watching You Fall Lyrics
There in the dark there's a child and she's waiting
Lost in maze of a fait accompli
Is it a crime to be just hesitating
While we're pretending that we never see?
On a TV mounted on the wall
From this distance I can see it all
I've been out here
Watching you, watching you fall
Is there a trick to the art of not feeling?
Safe in our world while a mother's child bleeds
Praying that God won't demand a redeeming
Of cards we have held and pretend you don't need
On a TV mounted on the wall
From this distance I can see it all
I've been out here
Watching you, watching you fall
Better not think about it
And in time we'll start to doubt it
Christ has risen, keep him hidden
God forbid he sees
It's not that we lack the vision
Only just a quick decision
Who will blame us? Rules restrain us
It's all in history
So close my eyes and pretend I am sleeping
Avoiding the chance that you'll visit my dreams
On a TV mounted on the wall
From this distance I can see it all
I've been out here
Watching you, watching you fall
Lost in maze of a fait accompli
Is it a crime to be just hesitating
While we're pretending that we never see?
From this distance I can see it all
I've been out here
Watching you, watching you fall
Safe in our world while a mother's child bleeds
Praying that God won't demand a redeeming
Of cards we have held and pretend you don't need
From this distance I can see it all
I've been out here
Watching you, watching you fall
And in time we'll start to doubt it
Christ has risen, keep him hidden
God forbid he sees
Only just a quick decision
Who will blame us? Rules restrain us
It's all in history
Avoiding the chance that you'll visit my dreams
From this distance I can see it all
I've been out here
Watching you, watching you fall
