The Fall Lyrics

Living on these stale pills so long I can't stand it
I can tell in your heart
You're so understanding
Will you want to stick around and take another fall?

Bringing it on in here - right here where your standing
I can tell by your smile - it's judging expression
It's getting clear you were coming here to take another fall
I could be wrong
Is it over now?
It's hitting ground
I can tell by the way you stare you see where it's heading
I can see in your heart
You know that it's there
When you give it out
You chicken out
And say that it's gone
You could be wrong
It could happen now
It could be strong

Living on these stale pills so long I can't stand it
I can tell in your heart
You're so understanding
When you give it out
You chicken out
And say that it's gone
You could be wrong
It could happen now
It could be strong
Just tell me now
You could be wrong
It could happen now
It could be strong...yeah

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.

It's a great song...Also the first song that I heard by The Wipers. Track 1 from "The Power In One", released in 1999.
