A Fall To Break Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I will get back up again,
I'm finally on solid ground,
And the games they've come to end,
You don't know,
The things I've done,
under a bloody sun,
The scars I've earned,
By all these bridges burned,
Down to the depths of what I,
Try to hide inside but I,
Know that it's not right,
Know we've got the right to fight,
I've said it before & I will say it again,
I will never give up & I will never give in,
When it comes to this path I lead,
Now my future is up to me.
I, I look into the future,
been given one more chance,
And I'ma make it right this time,
It's funny how some view turn,
From hate & Spite to touching someone else life,
From broken promises, to
Doing what I say,
From hurting friends & Love ones,
to Never looking back and now its,
Down to the depths of what I,
Try to hide inside but I,
Know that it's not right,
Know we've got the right to fight,
I've said it before & I will say it again,
I will never give up & I will never give in,
When it comes to this path I lead,
Now my future is up to me.
All I'm seeing is open doors,
That won't let me in,
Beyond these padded walls,
There's a world that's filled with sin,
I face them all,
And I know that I will win,
As I stand tall,
And begin where they will end.
I fall down,
But I will get back up again...
Down to the depths of what I,
Try to hide inside but I,
Know that it's not right,
Know we've got the right to fight,
I've said it before & I will say it again,
I will never give up & I will never give in,
When it comes to this path I lead,
Now my future is up to me.
