She said "I'm fine, I'm okay" cover up your trembling hands There's indecision when you know you ain't got nothing left When the good times never stay And the cheap thrills always seem to fade away (when will we fall) When will we fall (when will we fall down) Jump back, got to get out of here Been too, too long this time Jump back, got to get out of here When will, when will we fall down She hates her life, she hates her skin, she even hates her friends Tries to hold on to all the reputations she can't mend And there's some chance we could fail But the last time someone was always there for bail (when will we fall) When will we fall (when will we fall down) Jump back, got to get out of here Been too, too long this time Jump back, got to get out of here When will, when will we fall down When will we, when will we fall down When will we fall (When will, when will, when will we fall down) She said "I'm fine, I'm okay" cover up your trembling hands There's indecision when you know you ain't got nothing left For the last time conscience calls For a good friend I was never there at all (when will we fall) When will we fall (when will we fall down) Jump back, got to get out of here Been too, too long this time Jump back, got to get out of here When will, when will we fall down When will we, when will we fall down When will we fall
