Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds — She Fell Away

[Verse 1] Once she lay open like a road Carved apart the madness that I stumbled from But she fell away, she fell away Shed me like a skin, she fell away Left me holding everything Seems impossible to me now Seems impossible to me now Seems impossible to me now But once the road lay open like a girl [Verse 2] And we drank and laughed and threw the bottle over But she fell away, she fell away I did not see the cracks form, as I knelt to pray I did not see the crevice yawn, no, no, no Sometimes at night I feel the end it is at hand My pistol going crazy in my hand For she fell away, oh she fell away [Verse 3] Walked me to the brink and fell away I did not see her fall to better days Sometimes I wonder was she ever really there at all, yeah Yes, she fell away, she fell away Oh she fell away, oh she fell away
