Lyrics

First

[Verse 1]

If someone should ask you, then say

That he fell away

From what he wanted at first

From what he wanted at first

From what he wanted

If someone should ask you, then say

That they fell away

From what they wanted at first

From what they wanted at first

From what they wanted

[Chorus]

As he fell away, as she fell away

As he fell away, as she fell away

As he fell away, as she fell away

As he fell away, as she fell away

He won't come out and play music anymore

[Verse 2]

If someone should ask you, then say

That she fell away

From what she wanted at first

From what she wanted at first

From what she wanted

If someone should ask you, then say

That they fell away

From what they wanted at first

From what they wanted at first

From what they wanted

[Chorus]

As he fell away, as she fell away

As he fell away, as she fell away

As he fell away, as she fell away

As he fell away, as she fell away

He won't come out and play music anymore

[Bridge]

Try

Tried, I couldn't kick it

I'm taking mine

I'm taking mine now

[Verse 3]

No, if someone should ask you, then say

He sleeps all day

That he feels he's gone, son

And always will be betrayed

[Chorus]

As he fell away, as she fell away

As he fell away, as she fell away

As he fell away, as she fell away

As he fell away, as she fell away

He won't come out and play music anymore

[Bridge]

Try

Tried, I couldn't kick it

I'm taking mine

I'm taking mine now

Try

Tried, I couldn't kick it

I'm taking mine

I'm taking mine now

Try

Tried, I couldn't kick it

I'm taking mine

I'm taking mine now

Try

Tried, I couldn't kick it

I'm taking mine

I'm taking mine now

Try

Tried, I couldn't kick it

I'm taking mine

I'm taking mine now

Try

Tried, I couldn't kick it

I'm taking mine

I'm taking mine now

Try

Tried, I couldn't kick

[Outro]

As she, as she...
