You live your life pretending you're strong
behind your eyes everything's wrong
you make a point of shutting me down
when I try to reach out to you
and you say to me...

I couldn't fall down
I wouldn't know how to survive
and I don't need you in my life
but don't let it get to you
I just can't fall down
no I can't stop for you
cause right now you're not in my plans
but don't let it get to you, no

when you're alone you often cry
you're hiding your tears from the world
you're wiping them dry
you build a wall that no one can break through
cause you fear you've got too much to lose
and you say to me...

I couldn't fall down
I wouldn't know how to survive
and I don't need you in my life
but don't let it get to you
I just can't fall down
no I can't stop for you
cause right now you're not in my plans
but don't let it get to you

and I've tried to get through to you
tried to make sense of it all
but you let me fall
and every mistake takes a piece of my faith 'til it's gone
and you say to me...

I couldn't fall down
I wouldn't know how to survive
and I don't need you in my life
but don't let it get to you
I just can't fall down
no I can't stop for you
cause right now you're not in my plans
but don't let it get to you
