Poets of the Fall
Standstill
[Verse 1]
Time spent like a spendthrift clown
So many chances wasted
So many hopes let down
You didn't see how your pain
Became your refrain
You always thought there was tomorrow
Wish you could get back what you let go

[Chorus]
But it's alright if you fall
You just get up, just go on
Never mind the hurt, even if you burn
'Cause it's all gonna be so much better
The moment your true self's shining through
Like the love when I'm finally holding you

[Verse 2]
First step after the fall
So many more to take till I'm done with 'em all
With my hopes and my dreams, my anxieties
But there is peace in no expectations
Marvelling at the hallucination

[Chorus]
Yeah, it's alright if you fall
You just get up, just go on
Never mind the hurt, even if you burn
'Cause it's all gonna be so much better
The moment your true self's shining through
Like the love when I'm finally holding you
[Bridge]
Through all these dawns
Oh, winter blues
Still wondering why
And what's the use
Oh, the first hello
To the late goodbye
When I'm made new, yeah

[Chorus]
Yeah, it's alright if you fall
You just get up, just go on
Never mind the hurt, even if you burn
'Cause it's all gonna be so much better
The moment your true self's shining through
Like the love when I'm finally holding you

[Outro]
It's alright, yeah, if you fall
You just get up, just go on
Never mind the hurt, even if you burn
'Cause it's all gonna be so much better
The moment your true self's shining through
Like the love when I'm finally holding you
