lyrics

My Fall


It was ten years ago, I thought that day was the last
It was ten years ago and now I live in the past

And the sun got me going until my head was in the clouds
I was wise and all-knowing, didn’t know that wasn’t allowed


And I picked flower after flower until they rotted away
It was about one every hour until the end of the day

Cos I thought I’d walk across the floor, where you’d be waiting for me
But the wall was painted as a door, that’s all you were ever meant to be
Ever meant to be, ever meant to be…


And I kept all the balls in the air for as long as I could
But he just sat there and stared like I was up to no good

And, when I finally broke and started letting it out,
I felt my mind go up in smoke and my dreams starting to shout,
Starting to shout, yeah I started to shout


“Happy birthday to you” though you don’t care now what I do
But I just can’t help thinking back over it all
What you meant to me, I never meant to you
And the things that you said, well they just were not true
You broke my heart, you didn’t even try to break
My fall


Yeah, what you meant to me, I never meant to you
And the things that you said, well they just were not true
You broke my heart, you didn’t even try to break
My fall
