And it all falls down, yeah
And it all falls down, again
And it all falls down, yeah
And it all falls down
How can you learn how to swim before you get in?
Sometimes you got to take a plunge just to get in
Life's not full of shallow ends
Your house ain't full of armbands
Stay afloat, someone might put their arm out to help you
I don't know, I would
If I saw somebody drowning in a sea of self-confusion
I wanna be the one to try and understand
Why their tide ain't coming in
And their lighthouse ain't shining, mmh
So why do we all fall down?
If there's a reason we can stay afloat
Why do we watch them drown?
We're too selfish in the lifeboats
Why do we all fall down?
If there's a reason we can stay afloat
Why do we watch them drown?
So why are all the richest staying afloat?
Seeing all my brothers drowning
Even though they nicked the boat
Mothership ain't helping anyone
See the ships are getting bigger
Full of greedy wasteful men
Soaking kids with lies before they even got to ten
Sailing the internet waves, a tsunami of wires
A flood to take us under if we can't afford the life jackets
Majority don't even have the life jacket
Majority might fall where the tax brackets
The minority might jump to the next bracket
On a form to sign up for a raft and pay packet
With the same old unemployed age bracket
Even money sinks to the bottom when it's waterlogged
So, nobody true stays afloat
So why do we all fall down?
If there's a reason we can stay afloat
Why do we watch them drown?
We're too selfish in the lifeboats
Why do we all fall down?
If there's a reason we can stay afloat
Why do we watch them drown?
And it all falls down, yeah
And it all falls down, again
And it all falls down, yeah
And it all falls down
