lyrics

Falling is the easy part, at least that's what I've found
The trick is knowing what to do when you hit the ground
Spread your arms and arch your back or curl into a ball
Either way you have to take the impact of it all

All those years you wait there, on the safety of the ledge
Never realising you're right on the edge
One shove is all it takes to send you plunging down
You clutch the air, you fight for breath and the world just spins around

And you can learn your lines, and you can make your plans
But the truth comes battle-scarred
It takes a long while to fall a long way
And it's bound to hurt when you fall this hard

So forgive me if I took too long to find where I should be
The way the light got brighter made it hard to see

'Cos you can learn your lines, and you can make your plans
But the truth comes battle-scarred
It takes a long while to fall a long way
And it's bound to hurt when you fall this hard
