Scales Are Falling Lyrics


Alter Bridge Scales Are Falling

[Verse 1]
This is a tale so dark and dim
Of wicked hearts, the minds of men
Who spin their lies and hurt their kin

[Chorus]
Scales are falling, father
From my eyes like water
Is there no way to stop her?

[Verse 2]
She knows it comes with scorn and pain
A sacrifice she has to make
Her love won't let her stay away

[Chorus]
Scales are falling, father
From my eyes like water
Is there no way to stop her?
Scales are falling harder

[Bridge]
All of these yеars, so unclear, with no sign at all
That what we held dеar, once revered, now is torn
God, what comes next? I confess I am scared as hell
Blind with regret, what is left? Nothing more

[Verse 3]
Times were simple and we had it all
But that was shattered, now the joy is gone
Gone to waste and lost forever

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
Now she fears that this could be the end
For every moment she has left to give
I hope that you will remember
In the end, he made it way too hard
In the end, he went and broke her heart
What she had is lost forever

[Pre-Chorus]
Whoa, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
Scales are falling, father
From my eyes like water
Is there no way to stop her?
These scales are falling harder

[Outro/Guitar Solo]
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
