Against The Wall Lyrics

I was born to fly away
And run across the sun
It faded out
Like a candle in the breeze
Fading now
Like I’m supposed to

So everyday I’m against the wall
With nowhere to turn to
And if I dare to believe it all
It leaves me deflated

My mind begins to stray
And my thoughts begin to run
I’ve played it out
I can’t seem to find the piece
I’ve heard about
Am I not supposed to?

So every day I could lose it all
Don’t let this concern you
So will you catch me if I fall?
And keep me elated
It’s not complicated

And if I knew it could change it all
I’d hope that you waited
Can’t be broken down
And if I knew it could change it all
I’d hope that you waited
Can’t be broken down

Can’t be broken down
Can’t be broken down
Can’t be broken down
Can’t be broken down

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Seems like good love gone bad in general. Sounds like he wanted or had someone to love and that person hurt him to the core. Also sounds he tried to talk to that someone and open up but ended up talking to himself and now is fighting the depression stage of love ending. I relate to this this song based on what I hear and feel when this plays.

In my opinion it sounds like a broken man whose problems have caught up with him and he's pleading with someone to bring him out of it. The line: "And if my back is against the wall, with no one to turn too" really drives the point home cause he's been pushed to a place with no escape. The line: "So will you catch me when I fall?" if the pleading, asking someone to bring them out of the darkness
