The Ballad of Hannah Songtext
Don't you see
All the leaves that are falling
They count down
All of your days
And come one evening
You will surely be mourning
Your lost youth
That you did waste

For the years
Will gather upon you
Age will find you in your sleep
And the sycophants
That once did surround you
They will leave
When they have what they need

Oh Hannah
Change your ways
Oh Hannah
Your days are numbered

You made the time
For those that could help you
But the rest of them
You ignored
And in this kingdom
You see no ends
Only the means
To yours

But the fame
That has found you
It could only ever
Last for so long
Your body
That has become you
It will change
And one day be gone

Oh Hannah
Change your ways
Oh Hannah
Your days are numbered

And so when that evening
Does finally arrive
Who is it then
That you will turn to
For the young people
Those that made you
They will all
Have grown too

And your money
All thats left of what you made
Will be no comfort
In this lonely hour
And don't you wish
You'd seen the leaves falling
And changed your ways
Before now

Oh Hannah
Change your ways
Oh Hannah
Your days are numbered
