Fall to Fly - The Procussions

Dealing with demons got them feeling secluded

And muted without a clue how to heal them

We call them in our confusion to hear that they miss us

But I fear that this sickness well it’s mirror depicted

Leave us here with no witness

And though it’s clear as forgiveness what’s in us is our own secrets

We frequently swallow regrets

And follow tomorrows events with hollow hours of sleep

The sorrow borrowed was deep and now it’s on us to keep

Throwing flowers out at their feet

What started as darkness found its way through the anger

First we viewed it as heartless from the mood of a stranger

Now it’s newly upon us for every night has it’s dawning

These are the feelings you go through

When you fight through the mourning

Couldn’t force them to live found remorse in a sieve

We are more then our death need a force to forgive

Higher forces at play shinning as the source of our day

Keep us reminded of our timing and how often it change

Every single day I watch time pass by

Watch a man fall

Choose to fly

How could you take what you haven’t invented

Yet at the beginning you ended it

We could have laughed we could have mended it

You could have asked before you attempted it

Now forgetting it isn’t an option

But I’m letting you out of that coffin

Remembering you as a friend

As someone I love and think of too often

When I drink to get lost or when I think of the cost

Make me a cross now it’s over and done

Sober me up in the sun then take me across

To a day where you’re a good memory

And the pain is as good as a melody

And I play it as if you were telling me

This is how you should remember me

Just tell them we couldn’t hate them we hated we couldn’t save them

The weight of it all was living forgive them

The way it ate them was hidden like face paintings

We trace statements and place blame

Staying patient on the days we can’t change

Grateful for what they gave us

Those days will always be famous

And though they have flown away

We know it’s not to where their grave is

In our hearts is where they take us

The oddities that make us

Searching for our God in the chaos

Every single day I watch time pass by

Watch a man fall

Choose to fly

When your mind is racing facing the trouble of a dead friend

Struggling with dead ends you gotta cut a new path

Save the day’s they left with you and everything they meant to you

Plant it in the dust they left and trust it to make new grass
