Fall
Sundome And The Night Lyrics

One time never hurt so good
The singer has experienced something that felt good, but they question whether it was actually beneficial.

But I think it’s just misunderstood
The singer believes that their experience is not fully understood and may be more complicated than it appears.

The feeling in my bones I get
The singer experiences a physical sensation when they think of their experience.

When the taste of death tastes sweeter yet
The artist is drawn to something dangerous or potentially harmful, even if it may lead to their downfall.

Fool me one and shame on you
If someone takes advantage of the artist once, they should feel responsible for their actions.

Fool me twice and damn it’s true
If someone repeatedly takes advantage of the singer, the singer accepts the blame for continuing to let it happen.

A now repeating proclamation
The singer has recognized a pattern in their behavior and is acknowledging it.

Of a heart beat up by its own volition
The artist's heart is broken by its own doing, and not by external circumstances.

If three’s a crowd let’s make it dance
The artist is willing to engage in a dangerous situation with multiple parties involved.

And I’ll gladly drown in it’s dark romance
The artist is willing to give up everything for the allure of a destructive situation.

You think it’d be hard to drink
The singer acknowledges that something may seem difficult, but is in fact easy to partake in.

But dear, black water goes down smooth
The artist is comparing their experience to drinking black water, which may be harmful, but is still easily consumed.

How far, how far must I fall
The singer questions how much further they need to go down a negative path before something changes.

Before you take it away
The singer is hoping that someone will intervene and take away their negative experiences.

All the love that you gave
The singer is remembering a time when they received love from someone.

I don’t deserve it at all
The artist feels they are unworthy of receiving love due to their current situation.

Now I’m here bleeding out
The artist is in a state of pain and suffering.

And you are, you are, you are
The singer is addressing someone they wish to intervene in their situation.

Just watching me fall
The singer feels that the person they are addressing is not doing anything to help them.

Suddenly it’s all I see
The artist's negative experiences have become all-encompassing and overwhelming.

The cold disease inside of me
The artist compares their negative experiences to a disease that has taken root inside them.

Mirrors will never lie it’s true
The artist acknowledges that they can never hide from their true self, even if they may try to deceive themselves or others.

I died the day I turned from you
The singer believes that turning away from someone they once loved was the catalyst for their current negative experiences.

70 times the seventh sin
The artist is referencing a Bible verse and suggesting that they are guilty of committing many sins.

And yet you call me back again
The singer acknowledges that they may continue to make mistakes, but others still try to reach out to them.

A cage made of a million lies, but
The singer feels trapped by their own self-deception and negative experiences.

You refuse to go
The singer is addressing someone who continues to stay by their side even when things are difficult.

Watching me fall
The artist is pointing out that someone is witnessing their continued downfall and that it is painful for them.

Watch Me
The artist is commanding their audience to continue watching them even if it hurts.
