RISE AGAINST

- Ready To Fall Lyrics

Hold on slow down
Again from the top now and tell me everything.
I know I`ve been gone for
What seems like forever
But I`m here now waiting
To convince you that I`m not
A ghost or a stranger
But closer than you think
She said just go on to what you
Pretend is your life but
Please don`t die on me

Wings won`t take me
Heights don`t phase me
So take a step
But don`t look down, take a step

Now I`m standing on a rooftop ready to fall (ready to fall)
I think I'm at the edge now but I could be wrong
I'm standing on a rooftop ready to fall

Perpetual motion the image wont focus
A blur is all that's seen
But here in this moment like the eye of the storm
It all came clear to me
I found a shoulder to lean on
An infallible reason to live all by itself
I took one last look from the heights that I once loved
And then I ran like hell
Wings won't take me
Heights don't phase me
So take a step
But don't look down take a step

Now I'm standing on a rooftop ready to fall (ready to fall)
I think I'm at the edge now but I could be wrong
I'm standing on a rooftop ready to fall

I count the times that Ive been sorry (I know I know)
Now my compassion slowly drowns (I know I know)
If there's a time these walls could guard you (I know I know)
Then let that time be right now

Now I'm standing on a rooftop
Now I'm standing on a rooftop ready to fall (ready to fall)
I'm standing on a rooftop ready to fall
I think I'm at the edge now but I could be wrong
I'm standing on a rooftop ready to fall
Now I'm standing on a rooftop(ready to fall)
Now I'm standing on a rooftop(ready to fall)
Now I'm standing on a rooftop(ready to fall)
Now I'm standing on a rooftop ready to fall
