Fallen Down lyrics

Artist  : Gov`t Mule 
Song : Fallen Down
 


Bigelow the gigolo had no where else to go
His
sad eyes had seen it all
Scarred and lonely,
tough as nails
Open your heart when all else
fails
Wear the veil and the trojan horse
smile

Looking back on yesteryear
Seems
like, maybe, you missed your calling
But
hindsight is very clear when loneliness is
falling

And you have fallen down, down
from the heavens
Stuck out in the
desert
Amazing grace - such a lonely
place
For heroes like you and me
Fallen
down, just like a shooting star
With no fallen
angel standing by
To carry you
away

Target practice with other people’s
lives
Hit a few right between the eyes
But,
most of the time, you were wounded by the
ricochet
You say “play to win, boys, never
play to lose
Long as your playing, boy,
you’re bullet-proof”
But think about it -
you’re bleeding to death anyway

And you
have fallen down, down from the heavens
Stuck
out in the desert
Amazing grace - such a
lonely place
For heroes like you and
me
Fallen down, just like a shooting
star
With no fallen angel standing
by

Angel of mercy, take pity on a
fool
That spent a lifetime wondering
What
Napoleon would do
If he were in your
shoes

Rich, without pleasure - respected
without love
Drinking poison from a golden
cup
While anger, brother of fear, creeps like
a knife into your heart

Looking back on
yesteryear
Seems like, maybe, you missed your
calling
But hindsight is very clear when
loneliness is falling
And destiny’s through
calling

And you have fallen down - fallen
down
Amazing grace - it’s such a lonely
place
Oh yes it is
Fallen down
Fallen
down

Fallen down
Fallen down
Fallen
down
Fallen down
