[Verse 1: Adam Gardner]

He smiled to the world

But his heart fell below his pain

He wanted only arms

But he lied to himself again

[Pre-Chorus: Adam Gardner/Ryan Miller]

Closing doors and locking locks

He looked inside himself

Only to find

Deep down fear

[Chorus: Adam Gardner & Ryan Miller]

Oh let me fall in two

Let me fall in two

Let me fall in two

[Verse 2: Adam Gardner]

Wide as a river, and spread as thin

What he could start no one would finish

Bottled up frowning treaties

Saw what they would

Knowing not nothing

He was the only son

[Pre-Chorus: Adam Gardner, Ryan Miller, Both]

Closing doors and locking locks

He looked inside himself

Only to find

Seeping from his soul

[Chorus: Adam Gardner & Ryan Miller]

Oh let me fall in two

Let me fall in two

Let me fall in two

[Post-Chorus: Adam Gardner/Ryan Miller]

Let me fall in two

(What are you running from?)

Let me fall in two

(What are you running from?)

Let me fall in two

(What are you running from?)

Let me fall in two

(What are you running from?)

[Bridge: Adam Gardner, Ryan Miller, Both]

He finds himself a way

He finds himself a way

(Only have to make the world come find you)

Try to leave but there is nothing he can do

[Verse 3: Adam Gardner/Gardner & Ryan Miller]

Downcast eyes scrutinize

As to what the lead ball hummingbird would not succumb

To find what is gone you must burn what is dried

And smell the essence of what remains inside

[Verse 4: Adam Gardner/Gardner & Ryan Miller]

But blackened thoughts erase all that is past before him

Not knowing where he's coming

So you shake him around

And scream into his eyes

That to drown in the water is to lie by his side

[Pre-Chorus: Adam Gardner & Ryan Miller/Miller]

Closing doors and locking locks

He looked inside himself

Only to find

Seeping from his soul

[Chorus: Gardner & Miller]

Oh let me fall in two

Let me fall in two

Let me fall in two

[Post-Chorus: Adam Gardner/Ryan Miller]

Let me fall in two

(What are you running from?)

Let me fall in two

(What are you running from?)

Let me fall in two

(What are you running from?)

Let me fall in two

(What are you running from?)

[Outro: Adam Gardner & Ryan Miller/Miller]

Ooh oh

Oh ooh

Oh ooh
