To Fall

Running all your water down the drain
Because your firewood gets wet out in the rain
Is like trying to get acquainted with your pain
By putting words to everything that you can't explain

You write from every angle that you can
To recognize your heart and all it's wounds
By the way it breaks when life gets out of hand
To how it falls and apart from overuse

A fall is never under your command
Hits you late or comes a little soon
You always slip when life gets out of hand
It's never up to you
Why you fall

Crazy and the day is tired and long
Hazy like a morning fog is blue
You stretch out with your back against the lawn
And you lay there til the haze rolls out of view

When nobody is sticking to the plan
Cause everyone is sticking it to you
Boy that's when you start to understand
You only ever get to plan the follow through

A fall is never under your command
Hits you late or comes a little soon
You always slip, when life gets out of hand
But it's never up to you

The heart never is under your command
The heart is never listening to you
Go ahead and try and make a plan
I've never seen the good the plan has done, you

A fall is never under your command
Hits you late or comes a little soon
