How Far I Fell Lyrics

	作词 : Hammill
	(Here's the old man and his not-so-childlike bride;
	here's the humbling of us all, delusion never dies;
	here's the story: anyone can fall at any time at all.
	We're born to be fools in life.)
	I was the king of the mountain,
	I had everything that money couldn't buy:
	at the summit of ambition I was ready for the sky.
	I viewed the world from this, my citadel...
	oh, how I fell.
	Silent and sleeping, the volcano,
	so I thought that I stood square upon my feet.
	I ignored the warning tremors in my hubris, I repeat –
	I never saw you coming, Jezebel...
	oh, how I fell.
	As I look back now on the tears I was to cry
	I am holding on to the vestiges of pride,
	I am holding on, but I will never be the one to tell
	how far I fell.
	(Here's the old man and his not-so-childlike bride;
	here's the humbling of us all, delusion never dies;
	here's the story: anyone can fall at any time at all.
	We're born to be fools in life.)
	A fool and his money are soon parted
	and there's nothing like an old fool, so they say:
	once the plastic had been melted quickly you were on your way,
	leaving me drowning in the wishing-well –
	oh, how I fell.
	You'll never know how deep you cut me,
	although anyone can see the state I'm in.
	So I pay the price of such unoriginal sin...
	but I will never bring myself to tell
	how far I fell.
