Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Break me down and take my fall
I will creep you out and you will love all of me
Yeah, you will love all of me
Oh, I believe that we're almost over now
I do believe we're done
Why can't I stay sober now?
I just like to fall in love with the golden brown
But you're the only one I like
Break me down and take my fall
I will creep you out and you will love all of me
Yeah, you will love all of me
Oh, I believe that we're almost over now
I do believe we're done
Why can't I stay sober now?
I just like to fall in love with the golden brown
Break me down and take my fall
I will creep you out and you will love all of me
Yeah, you will love all of me
Oh, I believe that we're almost over now
I do believe we're done
Why can't I stay sober now?
I just like to fall in love with the golden brown
The Fall by Alexander is an insightful song about the cycle of life and how something that was once dazzling, such as a tree, could eventually fall. Alexander compares the tree's fall to the struggles of life, where a person can grow up their entire life only to fall in the end. The song begins with the imagery of mustard yellow leaves in the aftermath of spring, where one can feel the passing of time. The branches of the trees have become bristled and weedy, casting shadows on a primrose dim. Despite the tree's solid stature, grown so high and in different shapes and sizes, it eventually falls. This is a metaphor for life and how no human is immune to death.
The lyrics suggest that something is wrong with the environment, and man-made climate change is harming the planet. The line "Inhaled too much carbon from the atmosphere” indicates that human activities have damaged the planet, and there is no telling when the damage will end. The last few lines of the song suggest that like humans, the trees were created to grow and stand, but just like humans, they fall down in the end. We fall down, down. Creaking and cracking bird's-eye view.

I disagree with the title.
He rose but never fell
In India he walked away.
There isnt a way to describe falling by dying
He was ill maybe poisoned maybe not
Scientists today think he had a condition that just paralyzed him
Thats sad
He was just sleeping and they buried him alive if thats true.... still he never fell he never fell. Just had to much to deal with
He didnt feel like there was no more conquring to do
Maybe he was severially depressed and his body shut down
Anyway it went ...he was brilliant and a mighty warrior
Not many are depicted as great throughout history as he was.
I read the word great means no one is greater. In Greek
At that time that was so true.
How did armies use the bathroom
Wash
Cook
Sleep
His army moved fast and furious.
He fought on the front line
Lead his army and they believed in him enough to follow him even to their deaths.
Were they buried on the battlefields? Were they sent home?
Ruthless
Yes he had to be, to take down the greatest forces on earth at that time...
He was foretold about thousands of years before his birth in the old testaments.....
Thats saying something
He started at age 21.. to Persia
Was king at age 20.
Wow wish i could have known him
His mother had his dad killed cause he was tired of her snake worshipping witchcraft ways
Thats how she was brutal as well.
Man that had to be stinky.
Tipi Dan
He was one of the greatest men who ever lived--- beloved by all, ultimately even by many of his adversaries.
