Guster - Fall in Two lyrics

He smiled to the world
But his heart fell below his pain
He wanted only arms
But he lied to himself again

Closing doors and locking locks
He looked inside himself only to find
Deep down fear

Oh let me fall in two let me fall in two
Let me fall in two

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

Closing doors and locking locks
He looked inside himself only to find
Seeping from his soul

Oh let me fall in two let me fall in two
Let me fall in two

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?)

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

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

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

Closing doors and locking locks
He looked inside himself only to find
Seeping from his soul

Oh let me fall in two let me fall in two
Let me fall in two

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?)

Ooh oh oh ooh
Oh ooh
