There was a time when I needed something so bad
I was willing to steal it away
With such premeditation befitting the crime
No thought of the price that I'd pay
All of my powers of reasons were gone
I questioned if I had the strength to go on
Somehow, I'd forgotten how good it was
To feel freedom shine on my face
If everyone loses direction sometime
Then that was my fall, that was my fall from grace (Whoa-oh-oh)
I look back on those days with regret on my mind
Not wanting to go there again
If they say that we only learn from our past mistakes
Then I've learned a bookful my friend
All of my powers of reasons were gone
I questioned if I had the strength to go on
An' somehow, I'd forgotten how good it was
To feel freedom shine on my face
If everyone loses direction sometime
Then that was my fall, that was my fall from grace (Whoa-oh-oh)
That was my fall from grace (Whoa-oh-oh)
So many choices we have to make
So many people we would forsake
Its just one imperfection that lives in us all
An' somehow, I'd forgotten how good it was
To feel freedom shine on my face
If everyone loses direction sometime
Then that was my fall, that was my fall
And now I can see that the cause of it all
Was a betrayal I tried to erase
'Cause everyone goes off the rails sometime
An' that was my fall, that was my fall from grace (Whoa-oh-oh)
That was my fall from grace (Whoa-oh-oh)
That was my fall from grace (Whoa-oh-oh)
That was my fall from grace
