All Fall Down Songtext
von Machine Head

Anticipating, salivating, intoxicating
How I′ve been waiting
To gently soak in
Your dream that's broken
Caress my hands around your throat when
I choke the last gasp of air out of you

I′ll mesmerize you, hypnotize you
Paralyze you, my snake eyes blind you
My gentle tickle, my tender prickle
The back of your neck I stab icicles

My sweetest grin will pull you in
Behind that grin a razor teeth smile
Under your bed, inside your head
I am the monster in wait

Walk, run, I'm the fear you've become
Pray, hope before it′s your
Downfall, and all falls down


I patronize you, victimize you
My false pretenses endear me to you
I′m psychopathic, psychosomatic
Believe everything you've heard about me

Ate you alive since you were a child
That′s when the monster first appeared to you
So know my name, what is my name?
My name is fear and I'm you

Walk, run, I′m the fear you've become
Pray, hope before it′s your
Downfall, and all falls down

(Down)

With faith I crawl
In sadness, I fear what I've become
'Cause after all
I′m acting, pretend my smile on
Before the fall
The pain washes over
Hold on
Hold on
Survive
Survive this


(Walk) walk (run) run
I′m the fear you've become
(Fight) fight (back) now before it′s your
Downfall, it all falls
Downfall, it all falls down
