The Fallout

This is the fallout
From the choices that we made
This is the fallout
From the groundwork that we laid

Let’s forget our worldly troubles tonight
Let’s pretend more wrongs will make it alright

Staring at the sun we went blind
Waiting round and we fell behind
This is the fallout

This is the fallout
From the work we left undone
This is the fallout
From the fairy tales we spun

Take your loving kindness out on the street
Pick their pockets while you’re washing their feet

Gazing at our shoes for so long
We missed the chance to right all our wrongs
And this is the fallout

Staring at the sun we went blind
Just standing round and we fell behind
This is the fallout

This is the fallout
