Song lyrics

Send "Fallen" ringtones to your cell

Heaven bend to take my hand
And lead me through the fire
Be the long awaited answer
To a long and painful fight
Truth be told I've tried my best
But somewhere along the way
I got caught up in all there was to offer
And the cost was so much more than I could bear

Though I've tried, I've fallen
I have sunk so low
I have messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so

We all begin with good intent
When love was raw and young
We believed that we could change ourselves
The past can be undone
But we carry on our back the burdens time always reveals
In the lonely light of morning
The wound that would not heal
It's the bitter taste of losing everything
I have held so dear

Though I've tried, I've fallen
I have sunk so low
I have messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so

Heaven bend to take my hand
I've nowhere left to turn
I'm lost to those I thought were friends
To everyone I know
Oh they turned their heads embarassed
Pretend that they don't see
But it's one misstep one slip before you know it
And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed

Though I've tried, I've fallen
I have sunk so low
I have messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so

185 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal One hit wonder? You've got to be kidding me right? She's had about seven albums, and that's all that I know of. Ever heard of Building A Mystery? Adia? Wait? Stupid? All by her ... she is no one hit wonder, she's amazingly brilliant ... and she's been around since 1993 if not longer ... perfection. That's all. Perfection.

32 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This song is so pretty and kind of spooky.For some odd reason It reminds me of a certain series that I read. Well its about cats but its not a pansy book theres battles and fire ect.... It just is very dramatic song like the books so anyway I'm rambleing..........

3 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I gotta tell you all, she is so much more amazing in real life as she is on her albums. I live here in Vancouver and just attended her concert that she had last month. AMAZING. Her voice and ability to throw true emotion through it is stirring. This whole album the more I listen to it gets better and better. Her music is "real", which is more than I can say for most artists music nowadays. Cheers, Liquid

9 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal If you any of you have ever read or watched the Scarlet Letter... There are interesting parallels between the life and emotion of Hester Prynne and this song. My best friend and I call this the Hester Prynne song because it reminds us so much of the Scarlet Letter.
