R.E.M. - Fall on Me lyrics

There's the problem, feathers, iron
Bargain buildings, weights and pulleys
Feathers hit the ground
Before the weight can leave the air

Buy the sky and sell the sky
And tell the sky, and tell the sky

Don't fall on me
(What is it up in the air for?)
Fall on me (If it's there for long)
Fall on me (It's over, it's over me)

There’s the progress we have found
(When the rain)
A way to talk around the problem
(When the children reign)
Building towered foresight
(Keep your conscience in the dark)
Isn’t anything at all
(Melt the statues in the park)

Buy the sky and sell the sky
And bleed the sky and tell the sky

Don't fall on me
(What is it up in the air for?)
Fall on me (If it's there for long)
Fall on me (It's over, it's over me)
Fall on me

Well, I would keep it above
But then it wouldn't be sky anymore
So, if I send it to you
You've got to promise to keep it home

Buy the sky and sell the sky
And lift your arms up to the sky
And ask the sky and ask the sky

Don't fall on me
(What is it up in the air for?
It’s gonna fall) fall on me
(If it's there for long, It’s gonna fall)
Fall on me
(It's over, it's over me, It’s gonna fall)
Don't fall on me
(What is it up in the air for?
It’s gonna fall) fall on me
(If it's there for long, It’s gonna fall)
Fall on me
(It's over, it's over me, It’s gonna fall)
Fall on me don't fall on me
(What is it up in the air for?
It’s gonna fall) fall on me
(If it's there for long, It’s gonna fall)
Fall on me
(It's over, it's over me, It’s gonna fall)
Fall on me
