Lyrics
Fall Line
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
And by the way
You know that hope will make you strange
Make you blink, make you blank, make you sink
It will make you afraid of change
And often blame
The box with the view of the world
And the ones that fill the frame
I turn it up, but then I turn it off
Because i can't stand when they start to talk
About the hurting and killing
Whose shoes are we filling
The damage and ruin
Man the things that were doing
We gotta, we gotta stop, we gotta turn it all off
We gotta rewind and start it up again
Because we fell across the fall line
Aint there nothing sacred any more
Somebody saw him jump
Yeah But nobody saw him slip
I guess he lost a lot of hope
And then he lost the grip
Now hes lying in the freeway
In the middle of this mess
Guess we lost another one
Just like the other one
Optimistic hypocrite
That didn't have the nerve to quit
The things that kept him wanting more
Until he finally reached the core
He fell across the fall line
Aint there nothing sacred any more
