After the Fall by The Sideshow Tragedy Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I roll away in the morning
Roll away the stones and broken bones
Roll away everything I own
Roll it all away
Roll it all away
[Verse 2]
I was once a great dancer
I told stories, I charmed ladies, I cured cancer
But that was then, and now this is after
After the fall
After the fall
[Chorus]
I wore the mask so long it became my face
I ran in circles for years just to get to this place
And I wore my best suit, I even combed my hair
And shaved
[Verse 3]
I'm walking with a limp these days
I got chemicals to take as needed for pain
To silence the words that just won't go away
I can't go away
I can't go away
[Bridge]
I'm working on something new
It might not be honest, but I swear it's true
Capture the picture, capture this state of grace
Capture the stars, capture my naked face
Take my place
Oh, take my place
[Chorus]
I wore the mask so long it became my face
I ran in circles for years just to get to this place
And I wore my best suit, I even combed my hair
And shaved
[Outro]
No time to waste, no time to explain
I been here for years, I been here forever
I'm still here today
But I'm not the same, I've changed, goddamn
I've changed (Two, three, four)
I roll away in the morning
Roll away the stones and broken bones
Roll away everything I own
Roll it all away
Roll it all away
[Verse 2]
I was once a great dancer
I told stories, I charmed ladies, I cured cancer
But that was then, and now this is after
After the fall
After the fall
[Chorus]
I wore the mask so long it became my face
I ran in circles for years just to get to this place
And I wore my best suit, I even combed my hair
And shaved
[Verse 3]
I'm walking with a limp these days
I got chemicals to take as needed for pain
To silence the words that just won't go away
I can't go away
I can't go away
[Bridge]
I'm working on something new
It might not be honest, but I swear it's true
Capture the picture, capture this state of grace
Capture the stars, capture my naked face
Take my place
Oh, take my place
[Chorus]
I wore the mask so long it became my face
I ran in circles for years just to get to this place
And I wore my best suit, I even combed my hair
And shaved
[Outro]
No time to waste, no time to explain
I been here for years, I been here forever
I'm still here today
But I'm not the same, I've changed, goddamn
I've changed (Two, three, four)
