I see the morning paper, I crumble it to bits
Cause it's bad again
How long will it take us?
To find out that this is it
Until it's bad again?
The leaves are falling
The leaves are falling
Turning over and over the leaves are turning over
Getting colder and colder, the leaves are turning over
Why do so many races, fight while our children play?
Will we melt away? Try and they'll take your best friend
Try and they'll take your head
For caring about, for caring about
The leaves are falling
The leaves are falling
Turning over and over the leaves are turning over
Getting colder and colder, the leaves are turning over
Will we care again?
Will we care again?
Everyone passes on and believes in what they want to
If we heal, we can feel something that we didn't want to
There's a sign for the time, you can read it if you want to
Or everyone will become, numb
They're falling
They're falling
They're falling
They're falling
They're falling
Past love died, as she cried, I saw beauty
Girls wished for boys and scared them away
As I saw beauty
Alright, alright
My feet keep on taking me back, back, back to those places
Alright, alright
My knees keep on shaking from fright, fright, fright
Scared and cold, now you're old
Time thaws, but you'll break
There's a hole in my soul
How much more will it take?
Alright, alright
My feet keep on taking me back, back, back to those places
Alright, alright
My knees keep on shaking from fright, fright, fright
I saw, I saw
And it moved all of the gray aside
I saw, I saw
It moved all of the gray aside
Alright, alright
My feet keep on taking me back, back, back to those places
Alright, alright
My knees keep on shaking from fright, fright, fright
Oh no feels like I'm falling
Away from myself
Outside feels like it's calling
Calling...
I can be just like the others
I can act just like your brother
I can dress just like your mother
I can be but I don't bother
In a minute, in a minute
I can be these things
In a minute, don't you get it
Don't you get it
If I was to be as cruel as I could be
Would you like to still give all of your life to me?
In a minute, in a minute
I can be these things
In a minute, don't you get it
Don't you get it
I can be just like the others
I can act just like your brother
I can dress just like your mother
I can be but I don't bother
In a minute, in a minute
I can be these things
In a minute, don't you get it
Don't you get it
In a minute...
It's not your fault
They pushed you too far
And all of your thoughts
Came apart within so
They pushed you too hard
They pushed you too far
Fate comes, and fate heals all the worst of our debts
There's a broken man inside
There's a broken man inside
He'll break
He'll break
He'll break
He'll break
He'll break
He'll break
The styles are gonna change
Time will go away
The styles are gonna change, but I won't
If I could find a way
I'd suffer all of your pain
Time will go away, but I won't
