Once she lay open like a road
Carved apart the madness that I stumbled from
But she fell away
She fell away
Shed me like a skin
She fell away
Left me holding everything
Seems impossible to me now
Seems impossible to me now
Seems impossible to me now
Once the road lay open like a girl
And we drank and laughed
And threw the bottle over
But she fell away
She fell away
I did not see the cracks form
As I knelt to pray
I did not see the crevice yawn, no
Sometimes at night, I feel the end, it is at hand
My pistol going crazy in my hand
For she fell away
Oh, she fell away
Walked me to the brink
Then fell away
I did not see her fall
To better days
Sometimes I wonder was she ever there at all
She fell away
She fell away
She fell away
