Song Description

Progressive and thickly layered with guitars and harmonies, Drop finds the singer awakening slowly after falling hard. The choruses and bridge are about finding the strength to get up and continue.

Lyrics

Were they words or thoughts she spoke? I can't remember
Pictures shimmer as they fade, the dying embers
Awaking slowly, pinned to the ground by my own weight
A pool of blood, did my dream bleed? I think I'm too late

Now, I cannot say
Will I walk away?
It sure is a long way down
It sure is a long drop down

What was my name, where was I from? I can't remember
How did I find my way among these dying embers
Moving slowly, pushing against the tar black dust
Will I make it back to life, or will it be too much?

Now, I cannot say
I will walk away
It sure is a long way down
It sure is a long way down
Doors lock in my mind
I cannot rewind
It sure is a long way down
It sure is a long drop down

Crumpled back along the ground, my thoughts the only sound
Above majestic skies, the hero never dies
I'm immobile, the snake who can't shed his old skin
The past is swallowed, I was made of where I'd been

Now, I try to say
I will walk away
It sure is a long way down
It sure is a long way down
Doors lock in my mind
I cannot rewind
It sure is a long way down
It sure is a long drop down
Now, I cannot say
Will I walk away?
It sure is a long way down
It sure is a long drop down
I will find my way
I will walk away
It sure was a long way down
It sure was a long drop down

[Remember when the light was pouring in
When I could drown the feeling I can't win
But now again the rust recovers tin
And all I can think is it's a long way down]
