Ready To Fall Lyrics by Rise Against

Ready To Fall

Hold on, slow down, again from the top now, and tell me everything,
I know I've been gone for, what seems like forever,
but I'm here now waiting,
to convince you that I'm not, a ghost or a stranger,
but closer than you think,
she said "Just go on to what you,
pretend is your life but,
please don't die on me."

Wings won't take me,
heights don't phase me,
so take a step,
but don't look down,
take a step!

Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall,
I think I'm at the edge now but I could be wrong,
I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall.

Perpetual motion, the image wont focus, a blur is all that's seen,
but here in this moment, like the eye of a storm,
it all came clear to me,
I found a shoulder to lean on, an infallible reason,
to live all by itself,
I took one last look,
from the heights that I once loved,
and then I ran like hell,

Wings wont take me,
heights don't phase me,
so take a step,
but don't look down,
take a step!

Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall,
I think I'm at the edge now but I could be wrong,
I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall.

I count the times that I've been sorry, [I know, I know]
now my compassion slowly drowns, [I know, I know]
if there's a time these walls could guard you, [I know, I know]
then let that time be right now!

now I'm standing on the rooftop,
now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall,
I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall,
I think I'm at the edge now but I could be wrong,
I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall [x5]
