"Fall On Me" lyrics

Take another shot like you needed it
Save ourselves the heartache
Still playing my part like I'm walking on eggshells
Till I fell, ooh
It's known that we never back down
We've been walking this road, blame it on the lineage
Tell me this riddle if we're so behind
Why's it just now that we're running from the fire

Fall on me
Tear me to pieces
Lay down your guns
I wanna feel desire in your eyes
Oh again

Just another evening, screen appeasing
The urge to run away
Find you on the couch
Asking, "Where are you now?"
It's known that we never say no
To feeling the way we choose
Blame it on the privilege, but I think it's how we keep
Wolves at bay when we're fighting hard to sleep

Fall on me
Tear me to pieces
Lay down your guns
I wanna feel desire in your eyes
Oh no guarantee
Live through the season
Ending numb
Wanna feel desire in your eyes
Oh again

Falls on me to keep the burden of a pipe dream
Can we keep the dreaming alive

If it's all played out
Can't we just speak
A little louder now
Dig deep, we keep
Saying that it's everything that we want
Sink back to normal, never asking what's the cost
If it's all played out
Lay down your guns

No, none of this is easy
None of this is normal
Maybe I'm wired
To put out fires before they start
I learned it from my mother
Who learned it from her father
Baby, I'm not gonna be a martyr
For passing a thing like that on
Easy, let's let it fall back for a minute
It's tending to be a soft spot for us, admit it
Not what we wanted to see
But it's all that we're given, all that we need

If it's all played out
Can't we just speak
A little louder now
Dig deep, we keep
Saying that it's everything that we want
Sink back to normal, never asking what's the cost
If it's all played out
Lay down your guns
Yeah
