Hüsker Dü - Friend, You've Got to Fall lyrics
[Hüsker Dü - Friend, You've Got to Fall lyrics]
I can hear the treetops in the distance
I can see your hollowed eyes
What have you done to
Yourself in this instance?
I guess it comes as no surprise
Well, I can see the
Billboards in the distance
Writing is on every wall
Oh, I don't wanna know about your business
Sooner or later, friend, you've got to fall
Well, every night it's gotta be adventure
The way you live your life's a crime
And if you're guilty
Will you serve the sentence?
You're already doing time
There's nothing wrong with having aspirations
Nothing wrong with walking tall
But, if misfortune deals the consequences
Sooner or later, friend, you've got to fall
Oh, I know the difference
And you keep your distance
Oh, I don't wanna know what you've got
Oh, is it pathetic to be sympathetic?
And maybe you don't wanna get caught
Caught up in something that's real
That could last for a lifetime
Nothing like, oh, nothing like the disease
Disease that's in your mind
Well, I don't wanna know that's in your mind
There's nothing wrong with having aspirations
Nothing wrong with walking tall
But, if misfortune deals the consequences
Sooner or later, friend, you've got to fall
Well, I can see your life disintegrating
Into ashes in your hand
Oh, and I know you wouldn't want to tell me
What is wrong 'cause you're a man, oh
And I can see the billboards in the distance
Writing is on every wall
I don't wanna know about your business
Sooner or later, friend, you've got to fall
You've got to fall you've got to fall
You've got to fall
