Fallin' Down

Fallin' Down

watched it all go wrong
and it didn’t take long
oh what a waste
another friday-night basket case
bombs are blastin’
rods are castin’

and we all fallin’ down
and we all fallin’ down

monday’s medley
smacked and grabbed me
pulled me close
whispered, ‘you’re gonna sing for me’

who could argue with that
so here I’m at
twist n’ shakin’
amateur night head-fakin’
just a pile of leaves I’m rakin’

take another look
think it thru
let yer heart do the talkin’ for you

and we all fallin’ down
and we all fallin’ down

the Truth likes to hide
in the bright-white spotlight

She knows oh so well
on white-washed walls
it’s hard to tell wrong from right
limits [the/of] sounds and sights

and we all fallin’ down
and we all fallin’ down…
