Yeah, I'm not surprised by it

I've seen it before, after all

With those subjects, I just watched

Now I'm in the glass, trapped too.

I can feel the fringes

Slowly watching my own descent

Feeling just like the rest

All I can do is laugh

Laugh at that idiot

Who thought the ground wouldn't

crumble from underneath him

Now he lays upon bare rubble

Where people like him belong.

No need for anger

Nor acidity and conflict

We're better than that

Besides, if what I saw was real

Life will give me a break

I'll see unfamiliar, yet warm faces

Who's gaze won't petrify me

Hell, I might even see you again

But I won't be counting on it.

I hoped it'd stop one day

I don't like it, but it wouldn't change

Just a nuisance, I hate to say

But it stayed that way, for ages

Falling

But I remember the vision

And it helps me smile

If only for a little bit

That little break helps

At least for the meantime

So while the fringes may be closer than ever

That obstacle won't stop me

I'll be in balance again.
