[Verse 1: Adam Gardner]
He smiled to the world
But his heart fell below his pain
He wanted only arms
But he lied to himself again

[Pre-Chorus: Adam Gardner/Ryan Miller]
Closing doors and locking locks
He looked inside himself
Only to find
Deep down fear

[Chorus: Adam Gardner & Ryan Miller]
Oh let me fall in two
Let me fall in two
Let me fall in two

[Verse 2: Adam Gardner]
Wide as a river, and spread as thin
What he could start no one would finish
Bottled up frowning treaties
Saw what they would
Knowing not nothing
He was the only son

[Pre-Chorus: Adam Gardner, Ryan Miller, Both]
Closing doors and locking locks
He looked inside himself
Only to find
Seeping from his soul
[Chorus: Adam Gardner & Ryan Miller]
Oh let me fall in two
Let me fall in two
Let me fall in two

[Post-Chorus: Adam Gardner/Ryan Miller]
Let me fall in two
(What are you running from?)
Let me fall in two
(What are you running from?)
Let me fall in two
(What are you running from?)
Let me fall in two
(What are you running from?)

[Bridge: Adam Gardner, Ryan Miller, Both]
He finds himself a way
He finds himself a way
(Only have to make the world come find you)
Try to leave but there is nothing he can do

[Verse 3: Adam Gardner/Gardner & Ryan Miller]
Downcast eyes scrutinize
As to what the lead ball hummingbird would not succumb
To find what is gone you must burn what is dried
And smell the essence of what remains inside
[Verse 4: Adam Gardner/Gardner & Ryan Miller]
But blackened thoughts erase all that is past before him
Not knowing where he's coming
So you shake him around
And scream into his eyes
That to drown in the water is to lie by his side

[Pre-Chorus: Adam Gardner & Ryan Miller/Miller]
Closing doors and locking locks
He looked inside himself
Only to find
Seeping from his soul

[Chorus: Gardner & Miller]
Oh let me fall in two
Let me fall in two
Let me fall in two

[Post-Chorus: Adam Gardner/Ryan Miller]
Let me fall in two
(What are you running from?)
Let me fall in two
(What are you running from?)
Let me fall in two
(What are you running from?)
Let me fall in two
(What are you running from?)
[Outro: Adam Gardner & Ryan Miller/Miller]
Ooh oh
Oh ooh
Oh ooh
