Lyrics for Fall On Me

There's a problem, feathers, iron Bargain buildings, weights and pulleys Feathers hit the ground Before the weight can leave the air Buy the sky and sell the sky And tell the sky, and tell the sky Fall on me (what is it up in the air for) Fall on me (if it's there for long) Fall on me (it's over, it's over me) There's the progress We have found a way to talk around the problem Building towers Foresight isn't anything at all Buy the sky and sell the sky And bleed the sky and tell the sky Fall on me (what is it up in the air for) Fall on me (if it's there for long) Fall on me (it's over, it's over me) Fall on me (Well I would keep it above but then it wouldn't be sky any more) (So if I send it to you you've got to promise to keep it home) Buy the sky and sell the sky And lift your arms up to the sky And ask the sky, and ask the sky Fall on me (what is it up in the air for) Fall on me (if it's there for long) Fall on me (it's over, it's over me) Fall on me (what is it up in the air for) Fall on me (if it's there for long) Fall on me (it's over, it's over me) Fall on me Fall on me (what is it up in the air for) Fall on me (if it's there for long) Fall on me (it's over, it's over me) Fall on me
