  • Into the impossible heart of the sun
    Might be a place where I could belong
    Society used to be my worst enemy
    Now I want to build a small one for you and me

    The decline and fall
    Divide and dissolve
    The dry stone walls
    A beauty that calls

    The decline and fall
    A beauty that calls

    I know our time has come and gone
    At least we blazed a trail and shone
    These tiny molecules governed by walls
    Little atoms that only leave clues

    The decline and fall
    Divide and dissolve
    The dry stone walls
    A beauty that calls

    The decline and fall
    A beauty that calls

    So much for calculations
    So much for standing tall
    So much for implications
    So much for the decline and fall

    The decline and fall
    Divide and dissolve
    The dry stone walls
    A beauty that calls

    The decline and fall
    A beauty that calls Writer/s: Christopher Henry Difford, Glenn Martin Tilbrook, James Dean Bradfield, Nicholas Allen Jones, Sean Anthony Moore
