I've been trying to fight the sickening realization
We don't choose our temptation or our blood
And I seem to hide my feelings down in the basement
If I run I won't face what they call love

What is it I'm running from, the fall?
Can't have any less than having it all
I look up once and I remember that I'm so small
Maybe all we have in common is the fall (ooh)
The fall (ooh, ooh)

I've been trying to find a way to see it through
I wanted to live forever
Stay young and never have to lose you
But I've got a feeling that I
I got so busy getting by
That I forgot how to be the good guy
'Cause I all seem to do is hide
Maybe I'm too scared of when I'll die

What is it I'm running from, the fall?
Can't have any less than having it all
I look up once and I remember that I'm so small
Maybe all we have in common is the fall (ooh)
The fall (ooh, ooh)

Maybe all we have in common is the fall (ooh)
