Lyrics
Sailing long across the sky
Burning bright to say goodbye
Turning into target light
Why do all things come apart?
Why do all things come apart?
Breaking silence, breaking sound
Braking silent, broken down
Falling pieces to the ground
Why do all things come apart?
Why do all things come apart?
CHORUS: Loved ones wait with open arms
Miles away and safe from harm
To never hear the pained alarm
Never knowing what went wrong
Trapped inside a burning blaze
Spinning on and on for days
Wicked nights and blistering rays
Why do all things come apart?
Why do all things come apart?
CHORUS:
Is this the way it?s supposed to be?
Waiting long and patiently
Then you don?t come home ot me
Why do all things come apart?
Why do all things come apart?
Why do all things come apart?
