Fall On Me lyrics

There's the problem, feathers, iron

Bargain buildings, weights and pulleys

Feathers hit the ground

Before the weight can leave the air

Buy the sky and sell the sky

And tell the sky, and tell the sky

Don't fall on me (what is it up in the air for)

Fall on me (if it's there for long)

Fall on me (it's over, it's over me)

There's the progress

We have found a way to talk around the problem

Building towered

Foresight isn't anything at all

Buy the sky and sell the sky

And bleed the sky and tell the sky

Don't fall on me (what is it up in the air for)

Fall on me (if it's there for long)

Fall on me (it's over, it's over me)

Don't fall on me

(Well I would keep it above but then it wouldn't be sky any more)

(So if I send it to you you've got to promise to keep it home)

Buy the sky and sell the sky

And lift your arms up to the sky

And ask the sky, and ask the sky

Don't fall on me (what is it up in the air for)

Fall on me (if it's there for long)

Fall on me (it's over, it's over me)
