Fall down
Northmont Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It could have been a little lighter.
It should have been a bigger step.
We could have been a little younger.
There could have been something left.

So, we ask and we make all the best out of our mistakes.

If we lost this round, then we’ll find a way, to carry on and share it all somehow.
When we all fall down there is the sound of the one true thing we’ve found.

We could have gone a little higher.
We could have had a bigger net.
It could have been a little longer.
There could have been something left.

So, we ask and we make all the best out of our mistakes.

If we lost this round, then we’ll find a way, to carry on and share it all somehow.
When we all fall down there is the sound of the one true thing we’ve found.

(Instrumental)

So, we ask and we make all the best out of our mistakes.

If we lost this round, then we’ll find a way, to carry on and share it all somehow.
When we all fall down there is the sound of the one true thing we’ve found.

If we lost this round, then we’ll find a way, to carry on and share it all somehow.
When we all fall down there is the sound of the one true thing we’ve found.





It’s the one true thing we’ve found.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Northmont's song Fall Down speak to the human experience of looking back on past experiences with a sense of regret and wondering what could have been done differently. The first verse mentions specific things that could have been better, such as a lighter or longer situation and being younger. However, the chorus focuses on the idea of making the best out of mistakes and finding a way to carry on, even when things don't go according to plan. The repeated phrase of "when we all fall down there is the sound of the one true thing we’ve found" suggests that even in failure or disappointment, there is something meaningful to be gained.


The second verse continues to reflect on missed opportunities or potential, with references to going higher or having a bigger net. But again, the message is about making the best of the current situation and finding a way to continue. The instrumental break in the middle of the song provides a moment of reflection, perhaps allowing the listener to reflect on their own experiences of falling down and finding the "one true thing" that they have learned along the way.


Overall, Northmont's Fall Down is a message of resilience and hope, even in the face of disappointment or failure. It encourages listeners to reflect on their own experiences and find meaning in the mistakes or challenges they have faced.
