the fall Lyrics by half•alive

*7

2017

[Verse 1]
These words are supposed to be simple
But it seems that's not the case
This page is staring back at me
I'm afraid to put a mark on its face

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I'm just trying to introduce you
To this idea that I've grown used to
It's like sharing a dream with someone
Once you say it out loud, it can't be undone

[Chorus]
I jump off and into your arms
But I can't trust the fall
Take my voice, I'm giving it though
I don't feel safe at all
I can't trust the fall

[Verse 2]
It's like waking up in surgery
I can't seem to see right past the lights and I'm
So scared to take a knife to my chest
Let you see the heart that's inside

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I'm just trying to introduce you
To this idea that I've grown used to
It's like sharing a dream with someone
Once you say it out loud, it can't be undone
Once you say it out loud, it can't be undone (I can't trust the fall)

[Chorus]
I jump off and into your arms
But I can't trust the fall
Take my voice, I'm giving it though
I don't feel safe at all
I jump off and into your arms
But I can't trust the fall
Take my voice, I'm giving it though
I don't feel safe at all

[Bridge]
I can't trust the fall
I can't trust the fall
It's like sharing a dream with someone
Once you say it out loud, it can't be undone
I can't trust the fall

[Interlude]
Ooh-wee-ooh
Ooh-wee-ooh
Ooh-wee-ooh
I can't trust the fall

[Chorus]
I jump off and into your arms
But I can't trust the fall (I can't trust the fall)
Take my voice, I'm giving it though
I don't feel safe at all (Don't feel safe at all)
I jump off and into your arms
But I can't trust the fall
Take my voice, I'm giving it though (I can't trust the fall)
I don't feel safe at all

[Outro]
It's like sharing a dream with someone
Once you say it out loud, it can't be undone
I can't trust the fall
