Lyrics

THE FALL
Words and Music by John Cannon
 
 
I was pushing too hard when I suddenly started to fall
Yes, before I knew there was nothing I could do but hit the ground
 
Now pain is my constant companion. 
It walks with me down the hall
Pain is my constant companion
It speaks to us one and all
 
You were starting to teach what lies beyond reach, we cannot have
Well I must admit, I thought that it was mine to hold
Now pain is my constant companion
I runs with me on the field
Yes, pain is my constant companion
It screams at us 'til we yield
 
I was looking to score but I bit off more than I could chew
As I raced to the goal, I went out of control and time stood still
Now pain is my constant companion
It sleeps with me every night
Pain is my constant companion
It's the line between wrong and right
Pain is my constant companion
Pain is my constant companion
