We All Fall Down
Blue Murder Lyrics

Well Louie lost his daughter Down behind that shack The sweet brown sugar took her And she did not make it back It's another form of suicide Now I know the reason why I'm runnin'
Louie's daughter has passed away behind the shack after taking an overdose of a sweet, addictive drug called brown sugar. The drug itself is a form of suicide, and this tragic loss has driven the singer to flee in fear for himself.

So if you see your sister tryin' to hide her tracks You just as well remind her Cause she might not make it back It's another form of suicide No one knows the reason why she's runnin' Far away
If you suspect that your sister is using drugs and trying to hide it, it is important to confront her and remind her of the dangers. Drug abuse can lead to death, and nobody knows why your sister may be running away from her problems.

And all the fools think they're wise And the angels they cry And the people they all gathered round It was nine twenty-five When her body arrived And by noon she was down in the ground
Despite thinking they're knowledgeable, some people foolishly end up taking drugs anyway, which can result in tragedy. When Louie's daughter eventually passes away from drugs, there is mourning all around, but her end still comes quickly after arriving at the scene.

And we all fell down (You better look out)
As everyone falls onto the ground or succumbs to the addictive nature of drugs in general, a warning voice over pop up to remind of the potential risks at hand.

So if you see your brother Choking on the dope You just as well remind him Cause he does not stand a hope (It's) another form of suicide No one knows the reason why he's runnin' Far away
In the case of someone who is abusing drugs to such an extent that they may literally choke, it is critical that they are reminded of what they are doing, because they may not have the ability to save themselves. This is also an additional form of suicidal behaviour, and nobody knows why the person may be running away from their problems.

And we all fall down
As everyone falls onto the ground, a solo is played to bring about a sense of finality in the situation.

So if you see your mama Shakin' on the street Your little sister's starving And there ain't no food to eat She's looking for the dealer She's tryin' to find some crack Well, tell your little sister Mama won't be coming back Another form of suicide No one knows the reason why she's runnin' Far away
If a family member is on the streets, suffering from drug addiction to the point that they are shaking, and everyone is struggling to find food, it is vital to advise your sister against seeking out the dealer that could sell her drugs. Nobody knows the underlying reason for her escape from the situation, and the act of addiction is in itself another risk of suicide.

And all the fools think they're wise And the angels they cry And the people they all gathered round It was nine twenty-five When her body arrived And by noon she was down in the ground
Once again, despite believing they are immune to it, the foolish often end up taking drugs and suffer as a result. Louie's daughter's death resulted in mourning from all of those who gathered together, but soon after her arrival at the scene she was buried within a few hours.

And we all fall down And we all fall down And we all fall down To the ground And we all fall down It's comin' to tet ya Just one more hit Just another hit You Better look out Cause the dealer's gonna get ya You're going down
No matter who we are, addiction is a thing that can get us all, and we can all fall down. A final warning is given to be careful because the next hit, no matter how tempting or alluring, could very well be the hit that ends it all. A warning voice warns of the looming danger that the dealer would bring to our lives and takes us down.
