Lyrics Poets of the Fall

Poets of the Fall

The Child in Me

Some people never

Settle for the one

One love forever

Searching for the sun

Heat-blasted faces

Promises at dawn

A constant flux of stages

Before they're gone

How do you live so gracefully?

(And would you show me)

How can I save the child in me?

(A world the child would see)

How do you fault so gracefully?

Serenity in a shattered world

The child in me

Harlots by the half-moon

Charlatans by wine

Seeking out your pleasure

The sweet concubine

That abrasive acquaintance

It's a wonder how we fall

Stopping at these stations before they're gone

How do you live so gracefully?

(And would you show me)

How can I save the child in me?

(A world the child would see)

How do you fault so gracefully?

Serenity in a shattered world

The child in me

I've been waiting

Feel the love rebuilding

Off the edge now

Falling down

'Cause I've been waiting

I've been biding my time

On the edge now

Falling down

How do you live so gracefully?

(And would you show me)

How can I save the child in me?

(A world the child would see)

How do you fault so gracefully?

Serenity in a shattered world

The child in me

The child in me

The child in me
