Chris Whitley - Breaking Your Fall lyrics

The horizon pales when she hits the ground sirens and scaffolds all coming down under the weight of heaven if only devotion could rise on a word then you could stumble never be hurt you could let go Breaking your fall Breaking your fall The pilots of pleasure your weatherman never could push you far as I can they just let you fall while buildings and bridges just crash and burn it's only a cloudbank bursting in turn they were made to come down Breaking your fall Breaking your fall Fault lines and failures angels and all follow her footholds breaking her fall it's alchemical
