Song lyrics

Send "The Greatest Fall Of All Time" ringtones to your cell

The hand of my clock strikes two
In times when I got the best of you
We made promises we couldn't keep
And every night we couldn't sleep.
I didn't know why, but didn't ask questions
because it was the first time in my life, yeah the first time in my life
Where I, did something right.

I set myself up for the greatest fall of all time

You pick me apart
While I search for witty things to say (In my defense)
"You'll never amount to anything anyway"
(Don't press your luck, don't press your luck)
And think that I'm impressed with your one night stands
and your contagious kiss
I'm trying to get this right
Yeah, cause I'm ridiculous like that

I set myself up for the greatest fall of all time

I'll keep this as
A constant reminder
Of the nights I spent holding onto her
And rest assured I'm moving on
I miss you less, with each day you're gone (you're gone)

I set myself up for the greatest fall of all time

Send "The Greatest Fall Of All Time" ringtones to your cell

70 posts	awesome song. favorite song by thrm. this one got me hooked on MR. i 1st heard this song on the Atticus cd like a few of you guys did. i think that version sounds better than the one on the cd. but the cd is still kick ass. did you guys know that drive thru records turned these guys down. ya, they said that MR wasn't what they were looking for. at the same time they were looking for new talent and instead signed The Early November and Senses Fail. that was in a past issue of AP mag. these 2 bands have a few good songs but nothing compared to MR. too bad DTR, your loss. i can't wait to see MR Oct. 15 and 16. 2 shows back to back woohoo.

9 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Also a sweet song to be heard live...This song's got so much energy for being a slower paced tune. I like that about Matchbook. Like Promise, this is a song that sticks out looking back at the concert and there were some other sweet bands I must say, but MR just flat out rules
