False Idols Fall Lyrics
Your time is up.
We've been counting down your days
Going over every false thing you say
We wish it could be different
wish you'd stayed the same
Tearing down our idols.
Living life our own way
Taking the chance to say
All my heroes are dead.
Were we too blind to see
You were only human like me
Can't help but feel empty words - they're all you gave
Struggling to take back our days
They build you up to watch you fall
Can't you see? They can't be what you want
You build them up to watch them fall
Where did we lose control
We thought it'd last forever
We come and count away your days
Our heroes not what they used to be
Our idols fall away
We've been counting down your days
Going over every false thing you say
We wish it could be different
wish you'd stayed the same
Tearing down our idols.
Living life our own way
Taking the chance to say
You were only human like me
Can't help but feel empty words - they're all you gave
Struggling to take back our days
You build them up to watch them fall
We thought it'd last forever
Our heroes not what they used to be
Our idols fall away

this song is pretty much a gigantic orgasm
best song on the amazing new album
my favey song by comeback kid. i think means that, idolizing people, doesnt really work, there cant be any such thing as anyone better than you, because were all human.
i love the 'build you up to watch you fall' bit, its great
Such a good song.
i think maybe it's about people 'selling out' We've been counting down your days Going over every false thing you say We wish it could be different wish you'd stayed the same Tearing down our idols. Living life our own way
but then it's stating that you shouldn't put that weight on peoples shoulders because it's human nature to change.
I think this song is about not relying on others opinions to get you through life. You can't get through life by just taking in others advice on what you should do because one day, they may be gone and who will you turn to when you have no one to rely on? It's your life, do what you want, no one can tell you differently.
I think False idols falls means that god is the only real god, and others will only fail you apart from the actual god himself.
It's about not having heroes, because we're all Human, and will fuck up eventually, so it's not worth putting someone on a pedestal, only to fail and disappoint you.
