On the Floor

When you know that it's wrong, yet you still move it along And you find all in all, for yourself it's better off There's something you create that won't ever wash away Well you knew it was wrong It is wrong So you buy and you sell the means of keeping you from hell But the ghost on your trail can't seem to neglect a step There's a noose in his hand with a shape to fit your neck Keep on running from hell This is hell Well, ain't it something when everything falls apart? The ground you build upon determines if you'll fall It's slow motion as I watch it from the hall, all come undone It's the past that leaves you on the floor Leaves you on the floor Forgiveness comes with a humiliating clause It's the last thing you want, and the first to move forth Now your demons are sewn to your shoulder, clearly shown It is your futile refrain from vulnerable Ain't it something when everything falls apart? The ground you build upon determines if you'll fall It's slow motion as I watch it from the hall all come undone It's the past that leaves you on the floor Leaves you on the floor As you fall (Fall) You faintly hear a familiar song, Hum along, "Hallelujah." Now he's gone (Gone) As is the time you now have lost We die alone, hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Ain't it something when everything falls apart? The ground you build upon determines if you'll fall It's slow motion as I watch it from the hall all come undone It's the past that leaves you on the floor Leaves you on the floor
