Head, First, Down
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.
We are here
It seems we always must've seen
A dark black fear
And nothing ever seems so clear
The sun will not be here and I know my life has an end
The sun will not be here and questions remain in my head
So I fall
Head, first, down
Head, first, down
You heard my voice
You heard me howling in the wind
I saw your soul
I knew you'd never let me go
You're someone who'll be there and
Never let go of my hand
I'm someone who'll be there and
Protect you from oncoming winds
When you fall
Head, first, down
When you fall
Head, first, down
When you fall
Head, first, down
Head, first, down
This is real
And wonder, it's all around
You hit the ground
And know there, truth is always found
Reject superstition and listen to silences sound
Reject their false prophets and know that
There's something around
And they'll fall
Head, first, down
And they'll fall
Head, first, down
And they'll fall
Head, first, down
Because we all fall
Head, first, down
