Falling To the Earth...Rising To the Heavens

Could it make you feel
You know it all
Watch out
I might fall

Out of this world
Out of this mind...
...set...
And that's match point

To the point
It's the tip of the iceberg

Your ship crashes
into my world
Navigational direction
can't help you now

"Watch out for falling dreams,"
the sign reads
They can break your hopes
and break your heart

That's just a start
or an end

Pieces fall
do you let them lay?

We all fall down
and there's always
A new day
