The Cliff Before the Fall Lyrics

I mean no disrespect
How can you say what you did
This is all so soon
For me its been a long time coming
And I can't stop running

This train won't stop running
Although the fuel tank is empty
How can I keep going with this brick wall in front of me
I guess its just sheer will
And I'll keep moving on
With one foot out the door i'm already gone
This is the cliff before the fall
My legs won't stop moving
The thoughts just keep dancing
I am drawn to this light
I have made my choice
I have made my amends

I mean no disrespect
How can you say what you did
This is all so soon
The stars tonight remind me of what we used to have
Every now and again I can feel its back

Let's get one thing straight
You mean nothing
Let's get one thing straight
You don't exist
Turn and walk away
That is the only way that you will survive
Just leave this place in fucking flames
You can't say I never tried
Once is enough

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
