How to Fall - Minor Majority

You taught me how to raise the stakes

How to punch above my weight

But you’re not here to see me fail

You taught me how to shake the blame

You told me I would stay the same

How to keep a straight face with the weakest hand

But you never taught me how to fall

How to keep on running when I lose control

You never taught me how to fall

You told me about the golden rule:

The girlfriend and the swimming pool

How they look at what you got, not at what you do

You taught me not to overspend

How to trust a man you can’t befriend

Always me and you, never us and them

But you never taught me how to fall

How to keep my cool at the curtain call

You never taught me how to fall

I was made for exceptions, not common law

You never taught me how to fall

But I chose to love you in spite of all your flaws

You never taught me how to fall

How to keep on running, when l’ve lost it all

You never taught me how to fall
