Lyrics

Some people never settle for the one
One love forever searching for the sun
Heat blasted faces, promises at dawn
A constant flux of stages before they're gone

How do you live so gracefully
Would you show me
How can I save the child in me
A world a child would see
How do you fall so gracefully
Serenity
In a shattered world
The child in me

Harlots by the half-moon, charlatans by wine
Seeking out our pleasure, the sweet concubine
That abrasive acquaintance, it's a wonder how we fawn
Stopping at these stations before they're gone

I been waiting, feel the love rebuilding
off the edge now, falling down

Cos I've been waiting, I been biding my time
On the edge now, falling down

How do you live so gracefully...

Trivia

  • The CD lyrics booklet erroneously uses the word "fault" instead of "fall". This has been corrected on other official lyrics releases.
