Recorded on a pocket cassette recorder

lyrics

I've fallen. I've fallen and I can't get up. I don't know what to do about that. So I sigh and I try to make the situation better but the more I try to fight it the worse it gets.

I've fallen. I've fallen and I can't get up and all my hopes and dreams are in an iron vault. I'm going to live here for another long long year and the worst part is it's all my fault.

I've fallen. I've fallen and I've gotten up before so I fail to see the point in trying anymore. I will sit in my own blood enjoy the soft inviting mud waiting for a light; a good reason to fight.

I've fallen. I have fallen and I will get up. I've fought too long to end up here. I'll do better than I've done. Instead of crawling I will run. And I will spread my wings next year.

I have fallen. I have fallen and I will get up. I just needed a little time to breathe. I will stand in that harsh sun just to prove that I have on and on my head will sit a laurel wreathe. Hey!
