Watch Me Fall

Fell down when I was young Held down where I belong Couldn't get back up Wasn't strong enough Then a voice, then a shadow Cold blood in the mud and the gravel Held my tongue, I was wrong Didn't know any better Any better I walk home in silence Thinking of a better way To interpret what I saw today Life falls in funny ways I never planned to see But if you plant the seed You just might reap If you're patient, but I can't wait But I know through the heart ache The glass breaks, the nightmares The earthquakes It all takes a want to succeed The need to leap Fearing what awaits me Watch me fall head first It's all or nothin' All or nothin' Watch me fall head first It's all for somethin' All for somethin' Fell down but this was new Caught myself before the bruise Tried to get back up I was strong enough Heard a voice in the breeze Cold skin, blood thin runnin' deep Now my turn, I have learned That I'm only better Only better Honest, the ups and the downs Prevented the drowning But counting the times I felt I was sinking Thinking everything was fine, just kick me Bold writing on my back, just kick me This one's for me But I won't stay down Where I don't belong Feel it, I take the leap Watch me fall head first It's all or nothin' All or nothin' Watch me fall head first It's all for somethin' All for somethin' Watch me fall head first It's all or nothin' All or nothin' Watch me fall head first It's all for somethin' All for somethin' Watch me fall head first It's all for somethin' All for somethin' Watch me fall head first It's all or nothin' All or nothin' Watch me fall head first It's all for somethin' All for somethin' I walk home in silence Thinking of a better way To interpret what I saw today Life falls in funny ways I never planned to see But if you plant the seed You just might reap If you're patient, but I can't wait But I know through the heart ache The glass breaks, the nightmares The earthquakes It all takes a want to succeed The need to leap, the need to leap Watch me fall head first It's all or nothin' All or nothin'
