"And We All Fall Down" Lyrics

When you collapse
When you collapse, you remind me of a falling tree
Falling after it's been cut down.
When you talk
When you talk, I want to tape your mouth shut.
Take the tape off and you're gonna get cut.

And they say this is just a phase
Ain't nobody comin' over for dinner!
And I say, "That's okay. That means more for me. Too bad I'm not hungry."

I've been reading
I've been reading some about the solar system
And I know a little about gravity.
We're constantly falling, but the Earth is pushing back,
Pushing back with its incredible mass.

And they say this isn't a phase
And we all fall down.
And I say, "That's okay, because the Sun is dying anyway."

When you collapse
When you collapse, you remind me of a falling tree.
Falling after it's been cut down.
