"Fall"
"Fall"
Lyrics by Kyle Rich
Musical concept by Amos Lee from "Colors"

Lying down to try and solve my problems,
So many things that cross my mind
I'm on the ground but still afraid of falling
How many times can I survive?

I used to think I was an older person,
But maybe I'm still a child inside
I used to think I was about to surface,
But maybe I'll get it right next time

I thought I was... but maybe I'm not
Who am I? Am I just lost?
Or maybe I'm just waiting...

Until I... fall
I'll be safer when there's... calm
All the pain I feel is... gone
I will stay there until... dawn...
But will I wake up when it comes?

We used to dream about a perfect purpose,
So many possibilities
We used to say we were more than falling,
But how could we know what's meant to be?

I used to think you had a million verses,
So why do you seem so quiet now?
I used to think you were the one for certain,
So why can't I find those reasons now?

I thought you were... but maybe you're not
Who are you? Are you just lost?
Or maybe you're just waiting...

Until you... fall
You'll be safer when there's... calm
All the pain you feel is... gone
You will stay there until... dawn...
But will you wake up when it comes?

I thought we were... but maybe we're not
Who are we? Are we just lost?
Or maybe we're just waiting...

Until we... fall.
We'll be safer when there's... calm
All the pain we feel is... gone
We will stay there until... dawn...
But will we wake up when it comes?
