Okkervil River - It Ends With A Fall Lyrics
Wish I could remember why it mattered to me.
It doesn't matter to me.
It doesn't matter to me anymore.
Now that you're feeling fine,
I'll admit that - though I know it's coming down,
and I'm not sadder for seeing it come.
I'm not going to run.
I will just come when I am called.
You want to cut me off
because I took too much,
but don't leave me alone.
Take off your scarves, your winter coat.
The night's too cold.
When we met I should have said
you're like a sister to me,
like puny suitors I can see through,
how none will do, not for you,
it might as well just be us two.
And when I pulled you by the jacket
from the clattering street,
you started flattering me,
you started saying I was so strong.
String me along, but I can't become all that I'm called.
And I can't claim to know
what makes love die or grow,
but I can still take control
and so refuse to just go home,
back down the hall.
And as I crawl,
as finally all the false confetti blooms up in this attic room,
I'm going make my stand.
I want to see both of your hands put down the phone.
I won't let you go,
although the moment stole my self-control
from us all and now it can only end with a fall.

assai bella
beautiful song
This is a great song to listen to when you're depressed.
Great song period. But its so much better when you're depressed lol
Sky Moore, Old Okkervil has such a personal feeling. I personally think that DTROGD pretty much sums up the band (or will primarily) completely. Idk I’m just drunk on my balcony and can’t stop thinking about how much this group has impacted my life.
Their album artwork is always awesome.
Those drawings are so disturbing and awesome at the same time.
love thissss.
I prefer the live version, but this is still great
