Rise Against - Ready To Fall Lyrics

Hold on slow down again from the top now and tell me everything 
I know I've been gone for what seems like forever 
But I'm here now waiting 
To convince you that I'm not a ghost or a stranger 
But closer than you think 
"She said just go on to what you 
pretend is your life but 
Please don't die on me" 

Wings won't take me 
Heights don't phase me 
So take a step 
But don't look down 
Take a step 

Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall 
I think I'm at the edge now but I could be wrong 
I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall 

Perpetual motion the image won't focus 
A blur is all that's seen 
But here in this moment like the eye of a storm 
It all came clear to me 
I found a shoulder to lean on 
An infallible reason to live all by itself 
I took one last look from the heights that I once loved 
And then I ran like hell 

Wings won't take me 
Heights don't phase me 
So take a step 
But don't look down 
Take a step 

Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall 
I think I'm at the edge now but I could be wrong 
I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall 

I count the times that I've been sorry 
(I know, I know) 
While my conventions slowly drowns 
(I know, I know) 
If there's a time these walls could guard you 
(I know, I know) 
Then let that time be right now 

Now I'm standing on the rooftop 
Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall 
I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall 
I think I'm at the edge now but I could be wrong 
I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall 

Now I'm standing on the rooftop (ready to fall) 
Now I'm standing on the rooftop (ready to fall) 
Now I'm standing on the rooftop (ready to fall) 
Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall
