Friend, You've Got To Fall

I can hear the treetops in the distance

I can see your hollowed eyes

What have you done to yourself in this instance?

I guess it comes as no surprise



I can see the billboards in the distance

Writing is on every wall

I don't wanna know about your business

Sooner or later, friend, you've got to fall



Every night it's gotta be adventure

The way you live your life's a crime

And if you're guilty, will you serve the sentence?

You're already doing time



There's nothing wrong with having aspirations

Nothing wrong with walking tall

But if misfortune deals the consequences

Sooner or later, friend, you've got to fall



I know the difference, you keep your distance

I don't wanna know what you've got

Is it pathetic to be sympathetic?

Maybe you don't wanna get caught

Caught up in something that's real

That could last for a lifetime

Nothing like the disease

Disease that's in your mind



I can see your life disintegrating

Into ashes in your hand

And i know you wouldn't want to tell me

What is wrong 'cause you're a man
