lyrics

WHY YOU FALL

Oh god it took a while to come right back to me
I’d give up anything if you’d just let me be
No use in shaking me just leave me in my bed
Cause mornings are the worst bit
Mornings drag me on ahead

I know I should have seen that hand behind your back
But I was busy launching my own full-scale heart attack
Yeah you sure taught me something when you took me down
Make the best of moments
Then make for higher ground

Don’t want to hear about the wind and how it blow
As far as I see love is just a hole

Just like a tidal wave you crumble and divide
With no regard for all the shreds you’ve left behind
So now what can I do but tremble in your wake
Sorting things you’ve broken
From things you’ve yet to break

Don’t want to hear about some fate we can’t control
As far as I see love is just a hole
That’s why you fall

Armed with demons plenty and pleasures oh so few
Left to my devices can’t say what I might do
Well you turned me around
But that’s all over now

Love is just a hole
Love is just a hole
That’s why you fall
Love is just a hole

The songs are deceptively serene, layering Youngs’ infectious pop sensibilities atop lush, dreamy arrangements that often belie the swift emotional currents lurking underneath. ... more
