So Clear

It’s so clear
Look at it from the outside in
It’s so near
In front of us now
The first up the ladder’s always the first to fall
It’s so clear
In front of us now
Well, the world let you down again
You’re feeling it owes you more
And while you burn it down again
You’re back where you were before
You’re still waiting
For your ever after
I’ll put it in a letter before I forget
Did ya ever really think about how much you regret
Your younger years were wild, you haven’t tamed a bit
Your knight in shining armor is tarnished in red
So clear
Look at it from the topside down
So near
Close to now
Oh, the celebration’s over
This has happened to you before
You’re still waiting
For your ever after
You’re fading
Fading away
Oh, running away from something
It’s gonna reflect in the rear view closer than it appears
I’ve never understood it, I couldn’t connect
The spilled milk
It’s quite alright if your script has failed
It’s not alright, the walls you built
Another knight from the burnt iron
Still waiting
For your ever after
And you’re fading
You’re fading away
Oh, first up the ladder, first one, you fall
How could you fall so far?
First up the ladder, first one, you fall
Look at you fall so far
You’re still fading
(You're fading away)
You’re fading away
You’re fading away
It’s so clear
(It's so clear)
(It's so clear)
You’re fading away
You’re fading away
You’re fading away
