"Fall Line" lyrics

"Fall Line"

By the way, you know that hope will make you strange
Make you blink make you blank make you sink
It will make you afraid of change and often blame
The box with the view of the world
And the walls that fill the frame
I turn it up but then I turn it off
Because I can't stand when they start to talk
About the hurting and killing, whose shoes are we filling?
The damage and ruin and the things that we're doing
We gotta, we gotta stop, we gotta turn it all off
We gotta rewind and start it up again

Because we fell across the fall line
Ain't there nothing sacred anymore
Na, na, na
Na, na, na, na

Somebody saw him jump, yeah but nobody saw him slip
I guess he lost a lot of hope and then he lost his grip
Now he's lying in the freeway in the middle of this mess
Guess we lost another one, just like the other one
Optimistic hypocrite that didn't have the nerve to quit
The things that kept him wanting more 'til he finally reached the core

Because we fell across the fall line
Ain't there nothing sacred anymore
Na, na, na
Na, na, na, na
