Rateliff, Nathaniel - Falling Faster Than You Can Run Lyrics
I'm on the run
Aimming too low
Breaking away
On the feet of you all
And catchin the stone
Hold me back
Walking it home
I'm taking the tracks
So leave me alone
You can see me fall
Faster than
You can run
Take it away
Kicking it back
Watch it dissolve
Tug on the line
Chained to the wall
I heard you call
We're not gonna make it at
Running
Will do you no good
I'm gonna fall
I probably should
Well catch me
You never could
I planned out the distance
From where you stood
When I hit the ground
Gonna laugh out loud
Gonna lay there a while
And stare at the clouds
Baby it looks bad
Or maybe from the angle I'm at
Well I tear off my shirt
And wrap it around
Your wound

Rateliff, Nathaniel Falling Faster Than You Can Run Comments
This album got me through an insanely tough time in my life and I’ll always be grateful for the sound of the song playing in my headphones while I slept on the floor...when I hit the ground, I’m gonna laugh out loud
Reminds me of Van Morrison , hope he is more cheerful !
Get’s me every time...unbeleivable.thx
Lyrics please! Brings tears every time
Does anyone know what brand of guitar Nathaniel is playing?
sorry. acdc but when the volume is controlled wtf
Wow ! breNt
Hans Zimmer needs a whole orchestra to create an atmosphere like this. Awesome piece of music. Thank u Nate.
my son is 3...he got an electric guitar today...he rocked to you all day. happy parents.
Listen to this band EVERY day. Hey Mama brings me to tears. Lost my son to suicide in August 2017. The word's in that song say it all. Now that I can feel anger instead of waves of pain, Son you didn't try hard enough ..... Thank you
At first I thought this was a cover of We've Got Tonight from Bob Seger
Me too!
This stops me in my tracks every time .... so sad, so beautiful
he's lost weight. Looking good.
thats old he is bigger now
I am so taken by this song...It grabs me and holds me as i float...
Surely one of GOD’s greatest
What a beautiful song..I heard this by accident..and at the time I was sorting so much out in my mind..and this spoke back to me what I was feeling. I love it..so much. This video shows that he feels what he wrote. It's wonderful..speaks to me in ways I cannot explain. Awesome..just beautiful.
I Love Music (Beautiful)
oh my god speechless
truly amazing
Anyone else getting a Willard Grant Conspiracy vide from this track? Much as I love his 'Night Sweats" work, this just blows me away.
Proof that real music doesn’t have to be fast and loud. A man (person) with a burn in his (their) soul can create magic. This song to me is just that. Magic
he has too much of a good voice to be singing songs like these! I am a huge Dead South fan but dont really like his solo stuff...I tried, but the magic was not there....maybe because no other band sounds remotely to Dead South.
This guy is awesome!!!
this is such a powerful piece. Just "discovered" this guy and I'm blown away.
About 5 years ago I ran sound for Nathaniel on the UW campus. He was just performing with a bassist at the time if I recall, yet it was the most gripping and moving performance I can remember; the kind of show that just has everyone raptured. Plus I recall that he was super kind and gracious even though we were just college students running the soundboard. I'm blown away by how his music has evolved.
1st time, but impressed
great song
I am 64 years old, and just discovered this on you tube. It touches my soul.
My best friend led me to this song last week and I've listened to it everyday many times over since then.
I can't explain how this song feels.. amazing
please make a song with the dead south and shakey graves ort better make a album you will make this depressed SOB happpy. thankyou for being alive you where amazing in bloemendaal
Nathaniel Rateliff, Shakey Graves and The Dead South are my 1,2,3 faves. You have excellent taste :)
Omgggg yesss my favs
I love his music! Just discovered him on here.
Bravo some real music for a change @ N,Rate well done sir *round of applause!!! OIOIOI
great band
This is the same Nathaniel Rateliff that performs with The Night Sweats, right? Amazing how different his solo music is, it's beautiful!
digs deep into my heart...love this, one of my favs of theirs
I love this sooo much! I saw them at FloydFest! I can't wait to see 'em again!!!
when one discovers one of the best its hard to stop listening... thank you Mr. & Mrs. Rateliff for having such a talented son and letting him run with it.
What a melancholic song.
Great music, deep and sad. Respect from Finland.
Just saw them at the St. Augustine Amphitheater, the best show that I`ve ever been to! They`re very humble and appreciative of their growing popularity, they`ve got a fan for life in me! This generation`s Johnny Cash!!
awesome music. originality at its best. good music guys keep that $hit up...please for the love of music
get to fuck yeer great
awesome!
Love you Nathaniel !! Nice lyrics , great voice ! And great musicband i hope i meet you in the future
Wow ... after serving in the army for more than 20 years I am used to operating without being distracted by other things going on around me ...... This stopped me in my tracks ... Thankyou :)
Am I the only one who hears Bob Seger's We've Got Tonight in this?
yes you r
I felt the same way when I heard it the first time.
Nathaniel is an angel....
Thank you so much for being a wonderful soul. I'm a huge fan and always will be. Keep make people who love music....feel!
just to add..i ain't never wanted to pay for my music.but you brother,i would pay
i do like your music nathaniel.want to buy your music,instead of just downloading it.give me a link,want to help you make money.make more music.fuckin great sounds man
Just LOVE pure love!
I like a lot of your music, but this song is very special to me. Thank you.
what a great song... their shows must be all over the board,,,
Neil diamond slash Kenny Rodgers slash buddy holly.. good stuff I really like it
47 people have good relationships
I am so grateful to be alive when a real artist comes out and moves my soul. The first time I heard his voice I cried....and still get goose bumps n teary when I hear something of his for the first time. Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift :)
check out shakey graves
I love Shakey!!
I love Shakey too!
The same just happened to me!! WOW!!
To me, they concede to a relationship that, despite the dream of keeping, comes the realization that it is over. Although its still beautiful, it cannot be, and he knew it for long enough to measure its end. I believe this guy feels what he writes, and is on a level all his own, with good musicians along with him. I cannot help feeling drawn to this song, the self deprecating tone, as it haunts us. Well me, anyway. Awesome.
This song makes me want to cry
I did cry. 2:08, I couldn't stifle it anymore.
The crescendo at 2:40 is where I lose it
+Tom Berryhill its really emotional.
Très très belle chanson, une petite perle on a envie qu'elle ne s'arrête jamais
awesome
It's speaks to me 🙏👏
The song was featured in the movie The Place Beyond the Pines. The song made the movie that much more powerful. Nathaniel is so talented, hope to see him live one day.
RIght there with you!
Saw them at The Greek, and now I'm just scouring the tour dates looking for a small venue I can maybe go to.
These guys are just on another level.
Also, a shout out to Tennis. Amazing job opening
Rene Hinojosa seeing Nathaniel on the 10th Nov in Leeds UK!! the excitement is beginning to show!
haha saw them at the Greek too! Few months back. We might have been at the same show. Love these guys. Best concert I've been to.
@Alexis G They had Tennis, and Jamestown Revival play before them, right??
It was an amazing concert, where were you??
I was second section up, like mid center of the theatre
Rene Hinojosa The song you're thinking of from the film is "The Snow Angel" by Mike Patton. Which has a very similar sound and is almost equally haunting.
He and Explosions in the Sky should collaborate. This sounds like a song of theirs from the Lone Survivor Soundtrack
HPC.. hello
I love the music. Unfortunately there are no concerts in Washington State this year... I would love to see them live; I haven't been to a live concert since NiN in mid 90's at the Tacoma Dome. Check out the Admiral Theater in Bremerton if you want to do a medium sized gig.
wow i love this
this guy is great
Why don't more people know about this man? I'm beside myself.
got tickets for Glasgow Scotland in November. ....ya a a a a as!
That voice tho... <3
It's a hopeful song that moves through you, lingers. It's like taking one big breath before carrying on to make the most out of the least favorable moments in life.
It's very comforting
Perfectly, and eloquently stated
This song is hauntingly beautiful. Sends shivers down your spine because of how close it hits to home
So freakin awesome. Sweet and slow...............................with a point.
amazing
Can't get Enough
He is so amazing and so different. Something like what Neil Diamond ...I mean in terms of being different and nice!
Just today made aware of NR. Sam Cooke vibe on some songs, here sorta like Lambchop. I love this guy.
Im in Awe!!!.... I haven't stopped tapping my feet and feel so happy listening to his music. For the last 3 weeks since I discovered them that's all I play....LOUDLY ............Thanks Nathaniel for your genius!
Definitely
He is AMAZING!! I'm addicted to him! :) <3 :P
For sure.
1. God
2. Nathaniel Rateliff
3. Sliced bread
My mind is blown.
I haven't felt music like this before. Thank you Nathaniel Rateliff.
His voice demands to be felt, nostalgic. Reminds me of The National.
