Flashes off in the distance

Closing in on us

Face it we're already finished

No ifs, ands, or buts

Were we better off back there

Liquid darkness everywhere

I've never seen such rotten stairs

Hey, where you going? You must be joking

It's a long way to fall

It's a long way to fall

It's a long way to fall

Yeah, as far as I can recall

It's a long way to fall

I admit, it's not exactly ideal

No, It's absurd

All I got is what the guy gave me

Gotta say, it's a neat brochure

Groaning branches full of birds

Singing love songs without words

Phthalo water, their wings disturb

They fly about it, they rise and plummet

And it's a long way to fall

It's a long way to fall

It's a long way to fall

Yeah, as far as I can recall

It's a long way to fall

Well I'll be, thanks for the reminder

You have all of my attention

This one of yours may just be a keeper

Possibly even a perfect ten

Well it's an option, I suppose

proceed with caution, here take this rope

Even better, these five smooth stones

Good thing I brought 'em, try not to drop 'em

'Cause it's a long way to fall

It's a long way to fall

It's a long way to fall

Yeah, as far as I can recall

It's a long way to fall
