I see the morning paper   I crumble it to bits   'Cause it's bad again      How long will it take us   To find out this is it   Till 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 do 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
