A Chinese Restaurant – Falling From The Top lyrics

Watching the red turn into black, my thoughts return to routine.
My pulse rate returns to 80. Have I just finished my duty?
We're scattered in a nightmare composed of tangled traditions.
We lived our passion and kept track of our own kind of ways.

I'm so deadly paled, my reflections are gone,
"You're gonna fall! You're gonna fall!"
I'm gonna fall!
With your bloodshot eyes you're staring at me,
"You'll start to burn! You'll start to burn!"
I start to burn!

I hoped for a sign to recover in that night,
Now watch me fall, see how I am choking.
Brace my chain one more time, lead me off tonight.

We've been like angels falling from the top,
You, you ceased falling but I don't ever stop.
I'm wrong, you're right, there seems to be no end in sight,
I'm dark, you're light, we need to end it all tonight.

I hoped for a sign to recover in that night,
Now watch me fall, see how I am choking.
I hoped for a sign to recover in that night,
Now watch me fall, see how I am choking.

Watching the red turn into black, my thoughts return to routine.
My pulse rate returns to 80. Have I just finished my duty?
We're scattered in a nightmare composed of tangled traditions.
We lived our passion and kept track of our own kind of ways.

We've been like angels falling from the top,
You, you ceased falling but I don't ever stop.
I'm wrong, you're right, there seems to be no end in sight,
I'm dark, you're light, we need to end it all tonight.
We need to end it all tonight, we need to end it all tonight.
We need to end it all tonight.
