I know the places where the ice is thin,
Too many cracks, you could slip right in,
Don’t let me fall too far, don’t let me fall too far,
I keep returning back to where I’ve been,
I wear my folly like a Cheshire grin,
Don’t let me fall too far, don’t let me fall too far,
Don’t let me fall too far.
Why do I look for things to prop me up?
A little water ought to fill my cup,
Don’t let me fall too far, don’t let me fall too far,
Act like I know you, like I call you friend,
But I ain’t got the time to let you in,
Don’t let me fall too far, don’t let me fall too far,
Don’t let me fall too far.
I keep my distance when the living gets too close,
I keep my distance from the one who loves me,
The one who loves me the most, yeah.
I keep my distance when the living gets too close,
I keep my distance from the one who loves me,
The one who loves me the most, hey.
I get so tired of the same old song,
Why do the changes have to take me so long?
Don’t let me fall too far, don’t let me fall too far,
I will hope for the things that I cannot see,
I know you’ll finish what you started in me,
Don’t let me fall too far, don’t let me fall too far,
Don’t let me fall too far.
