Lyrics

Stand the Fall

The man that’s walking down the road
Don’t look like no one I’ve seen before
I’m silent as the Marlboro man
As I duck into an open door

I’ve worked all my life to be where I am
I’ve gotten as high as I’m gonna get
The only thing that’s worryin’ me is
How am I gonna Stand the Fall?

Labor Day is coming soon
Try to get your work in by noon
The days are shorter and time is passing away

Idle hands are the devil’s workshop
But who will calm this unquiet mind?
If I lay down to commit the deed
Who will stay with me to do the time?

We want to fear what we don’t know
And then we learn to hate all the things we fear
Without faith can we protect
The things that we hold dear?

Labor Day is coming soon
Everyone’s got their work to do
The days are shorter and time is passing away

(I want to Stand the Fall)
How am I gonna Stand the Fall?
