Once was a man who consumed his place and time   He thought nothing could touch him   But here and now it's a different storyline   Like the straw he is clutching      Why has the sky turned gray?   Hard to my face and cold on my shoulder   And why has my life gone astray?   Scarred by disgrace, I know that it's over      Because I'm falling down   With people standing 'round   But before I hit the ground   Is there time? Could I find   Someone out there to help me?      Howl at the wind rushing past my lonely head   Caught inside its own motion   How I wish it was somebody else instead   Howling at all this corrosion      Why did the luck run dry   Laugh in my face, so pleased to desert me   Why do the cruel barbs fly?   Now when disgrace can no longer hurt me      Because I'm falling down   With people standing 'round   But before I hit the ground   Is there time? Could I find   Someone out there to help me?      Because I'm falling down   With people standing 'round   But before I hit the ground   Is there time? Could I find   Someone out there to help me?      I don't know why   I don't know, here I go
