It Ain't Easy When You Fall / Shades Off lyrics

You used to float just like a boat upon the tide

You used to run when things were done you used to hide

You talk of ships you talk of boats you talk of games

And now you're down you ain't around its such a shame

'Cause you got something to give

Something to hold onto

Why don't you live

And you just forget about fixing up fate

Maybe you'd stop pick yourself up

Now its too late Oh

It ain't easy when you fall

It ain't easy when you fall

It ain't easy when you fall

No it ain't no good at all

You didn't know this world ain't slow you gotta move

You made no sound I watched you drown I watched you loose

Your loneliness you knew it best but its a drag

'Cause in the end I lost a friend I feel so sad

'Cause you had something to give

Something to hold onto

Why did you live

If you just forgot about fixing up fate

You'd be here you'd be near

Now it's too late Oh

It ain't easy when you fall

It ain't easy when you fall

It ain't easy when you fall

No it ain't no good at all

Oh, oh hey

It ain't easy when you fall
