Leaves

I see the morning paper
I'll crumble it to bits
Cuz it's bad again
How long will it take us?
To find out that this is it
'Til it's bad again?

The leaves are falling
The leaves are falling
Turning over and over
The leaves are turning over
Getting colder and colder
The leaves are turning over

Why so many races
Fight while our children play?
Will we melt away?
Try and they'll take your best friend
Try and they'll take your head
For caring about, for caring about

The leaves are falling
The leaves are falling
Turning over and over
The leaves are turning over
Getting colder and colder
The leaves are turning over
Will we care again?
Will we care again?

Everyone passes on
And believes in what they want to
If we heal, we can feel something
That we didn't want to
There's a sign for the time
You can read it if you want to
Or everyone will become numb

They're falling
They're falling
They're falling
They're falling
They're falling
