Down the hole I go
Will anyone ever know
Grasping to a dream
That kills my reality
Every time I fall
At least I see the stars
Asphalt and the sky
Sing a lullaby
I twist and turn to find my way
Try to escape the traps they lay
Gingerly walk this wicked trail
Lost and alone looking for home
Falling in your arms
Safe from all that harms
Whisper in my ear
The future begins right here
Every time I fall
At least I see the stars
Asphalt and the sky
Sing a lullaby
The doubts they scream so loud
My mind it can't escape
The ghosts that haunt us now
Always out of reach
But all too real
Burn it to the ground
Make way for new growth
A Forest lush with hope
Every time I fall
At least I see the stars
Asphalt and the sky
Sing a lullaby
