Can't Break Her Fall Lyrics - Nothing Left To Lose - Mat Kearney

She says today is gonna be the last one 

I know there's never gonna be an easy way out 

She's rolling round the town with a fast gun 

And I know I can't be there to catch her when she falls 

Well half way down is half way out of here 

We're either halfway drowned or half way 'round the pier 

When you're that far gone 

I walked the steps to her apartment with the window by the shore 

And saw her curled on the tile through a crack in the door 

I've been searching for the words I don't know how to say 

I've been searching for the words to make it go away 

I spent all of last night and the night before that 

With my feet in the sand and the wind on my back 

Watching a ship sail out to a blue wide sea 

There must be more than this with a kiss we can't see

[chorus] 

Well half way down is half way out of here 

We're eighter half way drowned or half way round the pier 

I can't break her, I can't break her fall 

She's lying in the back room, crying on the bathroom floor 

Singing I can't take it, I can't take any more 

Just one reason, one to believe in 

That's not that far gone 

Not that far gone 

I held the back of her head and laid her in the bed 

And watched the sheets raise and fall to the rhythm of her breath 

Turn the lock on the handle and slipped down the stairs 

To the cover of the night with diamonds in the air 

I'll say a prayer in my breath and take a left at the water 

To the rhythm of my feet a sister and a daughter 

To the rhythm of the sea with the breeze in the autumn 

As it blows through the trees my hands into the water

[chorus] 

I can't break her, I can't break her fall 

She's lying in the back room, crying on the bathroom floor 

And I can't take it, I can't take anymore 

She says today is gonna be the last time 

And I know there's never gonna be an easy way out
