Tumbling Lyrics by Attic Wolves

Carry Us On

2012

Well, once upon a happier time
You and I had our hill to climb
Well, it happened in prose
But I'll sing it in rhyme for now
We had a goal and we had a task
To ascend to the top and to fill up our flask
Is a little old drink too much to ask for us

And you came tumbling down
And I came running after

Past the point now where reasoning helps
(But it's alright now)
Pushed beyond malice and pulled into something else
Missing the days where I missed you at all
(But it's all right now)
And I go tumbling down after you

Pick up my ball, pick up my chain
Pick up my chin and I start out again
This whole tale has been nothing but pain for me
We ambled up, hand in hand
And the scrapes on our knees made us understand
This journey we're on is not quite so grand anymore

We came crumbling down
There was no "thereafter"

Past the point now where reasoning helps
(But it's alright now)
Pushed beyond malice and pulled into something else
Missing the days where I missed you at all
(But it's all right now)
And I go tumbling down after you

Don't fall away
Don't fall away
Don't fall away
From me
And I'm no longer battered, tattered or torn
My heart is not broken, just incredibly worn
And there's no need to cry
And no need to mourn for you
