Poets Of The Fall - The Child In Me Lyrics






Some people never
Settle for the one
One love forever
Searching for the sun
Heat-blasted faces
Promises at dawn
A constant flux of stages
Before they're gone

How do you live so gracefully?
(And would you show me)
How can I save the child in me?
(A world the child would see)
How do you fault so gracefully?
Serenity in a shattered world
The child in me

Harlos by the half-moon
Charlatans by wine
Seeking out your pleasure
The sweet concubine
That abrasive acquaintance
It's a wonder how we fall
Stopping at these stations before they're gone

How do you live so gracefully?
(And would you show me)
How can I save the child in me?
(A world the child would see)
How do you fault so gracefully?
Serenity in a shattered world
The child in me

I've been waiting
Feel the love rebuilding
Off the edge now
Falling down
'Cause I've been waiting
I've been biding my time
On the edge now
Falling down

How do you live so gracefully?
(And would you show me)
How can I save the child in me?
(A world the child would see)
How do you fault so gracefully?
Serenity in a shattered world
The child in me
The child in me
The child in me

    The lyrics in the description don't match the lyrics in the booklet.
    Description - "How do you fall so gracefully."
    Booklet - "How do you fault so gracefully."

    So very.... Poetic ;D

    Dear poets,you're amazing! Keep going. Romania listens to you.

  5. M.... K....

    The older albums are much better. The old songs and the recent ones have more or the less the same chords. I would have loved to hear a different melody in their recent songs. and as always the lyrics are the top notch! the only artist with good meaningful lyrics.....thats what makes them an artist. stupid beiber Baby baby baby oooo and thats the only lyrics in the whole fucking song

  6. m.... ....

    That pulse at 3:10 punctuates so well, oh gosh the chills!! His wordplay is so poignant and good, always

    Your music is god. Thank you videogames for showing this band. Max Payne saved my musictaste. Please come to sweden!!

  9. 8.... ....

    One of my favourites.

  10. S.... P....

    Just recently got to know about this band and now I cannot stop myself from hearing them day in and day out.
    Great lyrics guys. Hats off.
    Lots of love from India. Keep up the good work.

    So few views. I don't understand

    S.... A....

    The video is up for just like 2 weeks and there's nothing exactly new here since it's just lyrics video and most (every?) fans should know those as that album came out more than a year ago.

    S.... A....

    serinde1 this Is not a satisfying answer. Because many early 2000s bands released their videos in late 2000s still got millions of views

    S.... A....

    Well then, you probably mean bands who are signed and famous, not independent and frankly, barely known outside their home country, like Poets, unfortunately. Their older videos (actual music videos, not ones like this one) reach to couple of millions of views, if that's any consolation.

    S.... A....

    Spread the word!!

    S.... A....

    Black Thunder the marketing team shoulda did a greater job..

  13. R.... K....

    My brain is unable to handle the epic switches in tempo in between *____*

  14. M.... M....

    Man.... beautiful. Marko's twist on words is always so good.

  15. T.... ....

    Come to london, ontario and i'll buy the first ticket :D

  16. Z.... K....

    😍😍😍😍great hit!!!

  17. P.... M....

    This sounds like a videogame soundtrack

    P.... M....

    Ironic since two of their biggest hits were written for video games :)

  18. S.... T....

    Aloha from Maui, Hawai'i!

  19. G.... O....

    Love the new stuff guys!

  20. A.... V....

    This is so beautiful!❤😍 They just stole my heart from the first time I heard them & I have no regrets about this one sided love affair!😋😊

  21. C.... J....

    Anchor🌺💞

  22. T.... ....

    This was one of the stand out tunes when they played in Manchester.

  23. D.... ....

    It hurts to see how much underrated this band is...

    D.... ....

    Because "it's underrated how we ovverate".

    D.... ....

    in a world where good music is sadly no longer "interesting" for a majority, that just goes to show how great a band this is.....

    D.... ....

    @Erik Pittini ok it is going to drive me crazy so which song of theirs is that line from.

    D.... ....
