Watching You Fall Lyrics by Savatage

Watching You Fall

There
In the dark
Theres a child and shes waiting
Lost in the maze of a fait accompli
Is it a crime to be just hesitating
While were pretending that we never see
On a TV mounted on the wall
From this distance I can see it all
And Ive been out here
Watching you
Watching you fall
Is there a trick to the art of not feeling
Safe in our world while anothers child bleeds
Praying that God wont demand a redealing
Of cards we have held and pretend you dont need
On a TV mounted on the wall
From this distance I can see it all
And Ive been out here
Watching you
Watching you fall
Better not think about it
In time well start to doubt it
Christ has risen
Keep him hidden
God forbid he sees
Its not that we lack the vision
Only just a quick decision
Who will blame us
Rules restrain us
Its all in history
So close my eyes and pretend I am sleeping
Avoiding the chance that youll visit my dreams
On a TV mounted on the wall
From this distance I can see it all
And Ive been out here
Watching you fall
