World Falls

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm coming home with a stone Strapped onto my back I'm coming home with a burning hope Turning all my blues to black I'm looking for a sacred hand To carve into my stone A ghost of comforts, angel's breath To keep this life inside my chest [Chorus] This world falls on me Hopes of immortality Everywhere I turn All the beauty just keeps shaking me [Verse 2] Now I woke up in the middle of a dream Scared the world was too much for me Sejarez said, "Don't let go Just plant the seeds and watch them grow" I've slept in rainy canyon lands Cold drenched to my skin I always wake to find a face To calm these troubled lands [Chorus] Ah this world falls on me With dreams of immortality Everywhere I turn All the beauty just keeps shaking me [Bridge] Now I'm running To the end of the earth And I'm swimming To the edge of the sea And I'm laughing I'm under a starry sky This world was meant for me Don't bury me Carry me [Verse 3] I wish I was a nomad An Indian or a saint The edge of death would disappear Leave me nothing left to taint I wish I was a nomad An Indian or a saint Give me walking shoes Feathered arms And a key to heaven's gate [Chorus] Ah this world falls on me Dreams of immortality Everywhere I turn All the beauty just keeps shaking me [Outro: Amy Ray, Emily Saliers] I'm running This world falls on me To the end of the earth With hopes of immortality I'm swimming Everywhere I turn To the edge of the sea The beauty just keeps shaking me And I'm laughing This world falls on me 'Cause I'm under a starry sky Hopes of immortality This world was meant for me Everywhere I turn I've got hopes of immortality
