Fall to Grace Songtext
von Karate

All of your pearls
Are slipping off the string
Too quick for capturing
Clicking on marble tiles
And all of your curls
Suddenly unwind
Spring straightened into tines
Now striding out single file

Framing stone faces
Tangled hair and lace
Awkward embraces
Dancing to carillons

We′ve no time to waste
Grab your suitcases
Won't you fall to grace
Into my waiting arms


So pull up your roots
And follow me to the city lights
Scuff up our suits
It′ll drive them crazy
Let go of our dreams
They're not what they seem
Our first pursuit
Is to be lazy

So let's stop pretending
That pride is not dependent
On conceits and pretensions
Hubris and vanity

We′ll lower your flag
Snatch up your bags
From riches to rags
From prestige to panury

Pull up your roots
And follow me to the city lights
Scuff up our suits
It′ll drive them crazy
Let go of our dreams
They're not what they seem
Our first pursuit
Is to be lazy
