Do you remember the Once-ler?
Who saw the world as his to take~
And said "I really only fracture [bad word] that we made to break!"
Never really seemed to notice
Things we found appalling.
Smilin' as the final [bad word] was falling, falling falling
Lead the world and heal tomorrow
Knowing we can [bad word] to high ground.
Same day, different story!
When we play, but now we borrow.
Falling, falling falling,
and there's no one left around!

Do you remember the Once-ler?
Finally drove the world away.
Turnin' all the things we live for
Turned the sky from blue to gray.
Never really seemed to notice
Things we found appalling.
Smilin' as the final [bad word] was falling, falling falling
Lead the world and heal tomorrow
Knowing we can [bad word] to high ground.
Same day, different story!
When we play, but now we borrow.
Falling, falling falling,
and there's no one left around!

Falling down
We're falling,
and we live in what we believe
We fall in life...
Thank god he held on to a seed...

Do you remember the Once-ler?
Who saw the world that he designed
Lookin' from an empty factory,
The nothing that he left behind.
Finally, he seemed to notice
Things we found appalling.
Cryin' as the final [bad word] was falling falling falling.
Lead the world and heal tomorrow
Knowing we can [bad word] to high ground.
Same day, different story!
When we play, but now we borrow.
Falling, falling falling,
and there's no one left around!

Falling falling falling
'Till there's no one left around...
