[Verse 1]
No warning sign, no alibi
We faded faster than the speed of light
Took our chance, crashed and burned
No we'll never ever learn
[Chorus]
I fell apart, but got back up again
And then I fell apart, but got back up again, yeah
[Verse 2]
We both could see crystal clear
That the inevitable end was near
Made our choice, a trial by fire
To battle is the only way we feel... alive
[Chorus]
I fell apart, but got back up again
And then I fell apart, but got back up again
And then I fell apart, but got back up again
Way, oh, way, oh
Way, oh, way, oh
Way, oh
[Verse 3]
So here we are, the witching hour
The quickest tongue to divide and devour
Divide and devour
If I could end the quest for fire
For truth, for love, for my desire
My desire
[Chorus]
And I fell apart, but got back up again
Way, oh, way, oh
Way, oh, way, oh
Way, oh, way, oh
Way, oh, way, oh
Way, oh
I fell apart, I fell apart
I fell apart, I fell apart
I fell apart
[Outro]
But got back up again
