Tumbling Down

Peter was a hero who’d forgotten how to live
Forgotten just how much he could give
He was living on his own for the first time in a long time
Just going through the motions to get by.
And the world was tumbling down
The world was tumbling down
Glenna was a winner
Who had given up on life
Just going through the motions to get by
She was living on the outskirts
At the very edge of town
Not going much of anywhere somehow.
And the world was tumbling down
The world was tumbling down
Through years of disillusion
They had built their walls around them
Not knowing just how far that they had gone
Through acts of desperation
They had sunk to isolation
Not knowing how alone they really were.
And the world was tumbling down
But by the grace of God or Allah
Or whatever guides this earth
They found their way to one another’s arms
By the strength of love or magic
Or whatever moves the heart
They found themselves in one another’s arms.
And their walls came tumbling down.
Their walls came tumbling down.
Their walls came tumbling down.
