​the fall ​​half•alive

[Verse 1]
These words are supposed to be simple
But it seems that's not the case
This page is staring back at me
I'm afraid to put a mark on its face

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I'm just trying to introduce you
To this idea that I've grown used to
It's like sharing a dream with someone
Once you say it out loud, it can't be undone

[Chorus]
I jump off and into your arms
But I can't trust the fall
Take my voice, I'm giving it though
I don't feel safe at all
I can't trust the fall

[Verse 2]
It's like waking up in surgery
I can't seem to see right past the lights and I'm
So scared to take a knife to my chest
Let you see the heart that's inside

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I'm just trying to introduce you
To this idea that I've grown used to
It's like sharing a dream with someone
Once you say it out loud, it can't be undone
Once you say it out loud, it can't be undone (I can't trust the fall)
