Yeah, we all fall down The higher we fly the harder it feels when we hit the ground What makes a man work until it's kids too old to kiss and hug He won't climb another imaginary mountain when he is in love enough What makes a man build a kingdom all

What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender Yeah, who are you? What if I say I will never surrender? What if I say that I'll never surrender? Keep you in the dark You know they all

I can't take this All my life is wreckless All our lives our dangerous But we fake our way through That's what we do I can't help this going down Sometimes things get in the way My thoughts I cannot convey

And freedom tastes of reality An' I'm waiting for you to follow me How can we follow? If I told you what it takes To reach the highest high You'd laugh and say 'nothing's that simple' But you've been told many times before Messiahs pointed to the door

But I forgive, I been forgiven, I hold grudges too Murda on the beat so it's not nice I was piss poor, sleeping on the dirt floor And we couldn't pay the rent so it's a notice on the door The neighbors been noticed so what I'ma front for? Using pennies

But alas I cannot swim There is gold across the river But I don't want none Saying work more, earn more Live more, have more fun If she refuses to be mine? And what will you do with a girl there's a house across the river there's a boy across the river

Help me remember When nothin' else mattered The way that we used to be "Cause you were lovin' me Just for the night, one last time One more good memory When I look back That's what I wanna see Oh, help me remember

The last time that I saw them I gave you my fingerprints They were running through your hair You held one between your lips And brought another there I haven't seen them since No matter who or what I touch I leave no evidence Left them all over you

I'm not around that much Running exhausted and lost If it could be undone Will it have costed? It's taught and lost Blowing away we stray, wilted Insuited, at fault What if the day had stayed in bed These baubles we've brought

I'm so glad I'm glad, I'm glad, I'm glad Don't know what to do Don't know what I'm gonna do Another week in Telephoning Tired of groaning for you
