Not Enough Love (Falling Skies)

I've never been a man to stand tall...

I've never been the man to call...

The voices; I'll kill them all...

Waiting for the sky to fall...

 

There was something about that day,

A blinding sun, a sky so grey.

Knowing my pain would never go away,

I invited you; you didn't want to play.

 

I see the mountains oh so tall...

Never known who to call...

The voices say, "Kill them all."...

Instead I wait for the sky to fall...

 

When the other side of me gave you an ultimatum,

It became time to go to war.

Looked in my eyes, realized how much I hate him;

Now I'm not a whole person anymore.

 

But when I face that side he's oh so tall...

Never again upon him will I call...

The voices say, "Kill it all"...

It won't die until the sky decides to fall...

 

Every moment that passes by,

Is just another brick in the wall.

Behind it you will hide,

Until the sky decides to fall.

 

I'll never stand tall...

Until you call...

Your love, I've killed it all...

Now that you've built your wall,

I've lost it all!

So now patiently...

Every personality...

Is hating...

Is waiting,

For the sky to fall...

 

There's something about this day.

The sky matches a heart so grey.

With pain that won't go away,

I've been invited; but I don't wanna play.

 

I hope she's standing tall...

I hope she never calls...

Again, I'd just kill it all...

Crash into the wall...

Then too, her sky would fall...

 

I want her to again feel love,

But I don't have enough...
