Fall
Four Star Mary Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Silver lights and gorgeous dreams
Autumn night, aren't what they seem
They are the days...
That keep me awake
From the sounds of crowded rooms
No ones around except to you
These are the days that keep me awake.
Watch the fall... break down on me
Watch the fall... break down on me

Ive heard the words they've said to me
Some say im cursed eternally
These are the days that keep me awake
One last breath from my lips
Raise the sails of sinking ships
These are the days that keep me awake

Watch the fall... break down on me
Watch the fall... break down on me

And i feel it coming on
And i feel it going by





Fall
Break down on me
