I'll Catch You When You Fall (Said The Concrete To The Falling Stranger)

by The November Criminals

[Verse 1]
I'm the dirt outlined in chalk
I'm cutting all my punchlines short
Looking through the keyhole
With you on the tabletop
My head's a gun, it's fully loaded
I'm not gonna sugarcoat it
If you're happy and you know it
Make your hands clap till they're red
[Chorus]
I'm held together by staples and glue, oh yeah
I hold on to your pretty words
I meant to misconstrue
You're, I swear
My daydreams and nightmares come true
'Cause we fit together
Like a hammer and a Phillip's screw
[Verse 2]
You tell me to fall asleep
But I've been lying here for hours now
You tell me to fall asleep to the tune of those
Secrets I'd never keep
But I won't be sleeping till morning
And all these thoughts are forming
Sing these words 'til your heart gives out
Give our songs a body count


[Chorus]
I'm held together by staples and glue, oh yeah
I hold on to your pretty words
I meant to misconstrue
You're, I swear
My daydreams and nightmares come true
'Cause we fit together
Like a hammer and a Phillip's screw
[Bridge]
There's few people you can trust, but
I'm not one of them
My heart's broken and turned to dust
It'll never beat again
Lights glow when they go out
But I may not be so lucky
There's few people you can trust but
Don't! Trust! Me!
[Chorus]
I'm held together by staples and glue, oh yeah
I hold on to your pretty words
I meant to misconstrue
You're, I swear
My daydreams and nightmares come true
'Cause we fit together
Like a hammer and a Phillip's screw
