Headed For A Fall

(album: Undertow - 1979)

Running from the feeling
Can't disguise
Finding all your reasons
Were alibis
You can say your breezing
It's not that way at all...
You're headed for a fall

Looking for excuses
To hide your shame
But all your little loose ends
Don't change a thing
You're the one who loses
By running from it all
Backs against the wall
You're headed for a fall
For a fall

Staring out your window
At the pouring rain
Trying to hide your sorrow
In your sweet champagne
You can't lose your troubles
In the bubbles of your wine
Only makes them easier to find
Easier to find

All your wasted chances
How do they feel
All your sweet romances
Were never real
Cause you're the one who dances
Got to pay the piper's call
Backs against the wall
You're headed for a fall
You're headed for a fall
You're headed for a fall

For a fall
You're headed for a fall
You're headed for a fall
You're falling, I see you falling
For a fall
You're falling, I see you falling
You're headed for a fall...
