Fall Line Lyrics by Jack Johnson

On and On

2003

[Verse 1]
And by the way, you know that hope will make you strange
Make you blink, make you blank, make you sink
It will make you afraid of change and often blame
The box with the view of the world
And the walls that fill the frame
I turn it up, but then I turn it off
Because I can't stand when they start to talk
About the hurtin' and killin', whose shoes are we fillin'?
The damage and ruin and the things that we're doin'
We gotta, we got to stop, we gotta turn it all off
We gotta rewind and start it up again

[Chorus]
Because we fell across the fall line
Ain't there nothin' sacred anymore?
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

[Verse 2]
Somebody saw him jump, yeah, but nobody saw him slip
I guess he lost a lotta hope and then he lost his grip
Now he's lyin' in the freeway in the middle of this mess
Guess we lost another one, just like the other one
Optimistic hypocrite that didn't have the nerve to quit
The things that kept him wantin' more until he finally reached the core

[Chorus]
We fell across the fall line
Ain't there nothin' sacred anymore?
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
