Verse 2
Falling slowly, eyes that know me
and I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
and I'll paint it black
You have suffered enough
and warred with yourself
It's time that you won
Chorus
Take this sinking boat and point it home
we've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice, you had the
choice
you've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along
