The Art Of Falling Down Lyrics - Keith Emerson Band - Keith Emerson

Falling Down... 

Well, you can jump the guns and corners 

To save your place 

It'll never hide the guilt that's on your face 

And you can duck and dodge and scramble 

And make that sound 

It'll never match the art of falling down 

Wishing it away will call them all to stay 

Well, you blame the slings and arrows 

That curse this fate 

And it still won't shave the cost of coming late 

Never a clean escape 

Becoming what you hate

Songs That Will Make You Cry Uncontrollably 

Linkin Park Honors Chester Bennington In The Emotional Video For 'One More Light' 

Watch Beck's Heroic New Music Video For 'Up All Night' 

And you can justify the cause and nail across to it 

But you need to get lost to get you found 

And it's a long drink of faith 'till you believe it 

And you come across the art of falling down 

Turning it away invites them all to stay 

You can light yourself a candle to ease your pain 

It'll never find the song to sing your name 

Ain't it a burning shame 

Enough to drive you sane 

Chasing it away will call them back to play 

Photos 

You can fly your righteous angels 

On a golden chain 

But it's a harder fall than landing on your blade 

And you can call it by it's name and put an end to it 

But it'll never change the art of falling down 

Falling Down...
