A broken spell A wishing well whose waters are dry A warning bell A yellow ribbon too torn to fly Stone turns to dust Rusting metal, muscle to bone We're looking for a locust wind To carry us home Chorus: We believed in those words that you said You took a black heart and you painted it red We deceived ourselves every night As you took a black heart and you painted it white You painted it white A blazing sky A brazen lie you barely concealed A promise made Betrayed upon a sorrowful field Nobody learns Seems like everybody turns to the screen To watch it pass But not to ask, "What does it mean?" [Chorus:] Now you're falling You're falling And you're falling And you're falling So here we are We're not so far from where we could be You've got a gun The one you say will keep us all free So free that you Can bomb a blue horizon to black Then steal away the day And never, never give it back [Chorus:] Now you're falling You're falling And you're falling...
