Proud To Fall

by Ian McCulloch



Here you come again

Acting like a saviour

There you go again

Talking like a stranger



You said we all must learn to face

What we're becoming

And then I saw you in the distance

Off and running



But from start to finish

I was proud to fall

And I fell so deep within it

I got lost inside it all

Inside it all

Inside it all



Looks like rain again

Feels like it's rained forever

Can't remember when

Can't remember whether

I ever really told you who I was

It must have been because because because



From start to finish

I was proud to fall

And I fell so deep within it

I got lost inside it all

Inside it all

Inside it all



I fell between the bruises

And the red curtain call

I prayed you'd light the fuses

And we'd burn and torch it all

Long day's journey into

Long night's journey out

Knee deep so deep within you

I kept and keep without



You said we all must learn to face

What we're becoming

And then I saw you in the mirror

Off and running



But from start to finish
