FALL

Won't you come down off that ledge
I'm not trying to make you Fall
Come down off that ledge
You don't have to try that hard
There's an anniversary
Gonna pass us by
On that snowy day
Let the snowflakes go down slow
Cuz he's not coming out to play
Come down off that ledge
I'm not trying to make you Fall
Come down off that ledge
You don't have to try that hard
CHORUS
And you work 'til it hurts
And you drain every bit
Of distance between you and love
And you pay what it takes
To redeem every break
That builds us a life in this world
And you Fall
She came down off that ledge
On that winter day
She came down off that ledge
No, she's not coming out to play
And the traintracks call your name
As you hustle up a fight
Oh, the tunnel's all aglow
But there's no train tonight
BRIDGE
So you walk home 'til morning
and the city's breaking down
Oh, the ghosts keep you moving
when there's no one around
And you call out her name
Though it's not the same
The ocean is starting to cry
For the fight faught for good
And the lady who stood
Alone in an indulgeant crowd
You try to forget that there's nothin' left
To give you a reason to live
You try to pretend you'll see her again
As you open your arms and dive in
CHORUS
We work 'til it hurts
And we drain every bit
Of distance between us and love
We pay what it takes
To redeem every break
That builds us a life in this world
And We Fall
We Fall
We Fall
We Fall
