Falling Together

[Verse 1: Ekoh]

7:00 AM he hops onto the bus with some

Long sleeves to hide all of his cuts would ya

Even stop if you noticed or ignore the facts

'Cuz you don't know him, he just sits in the back of class

Never talks, what a shock, you think he is weird and different

Never take the time to see how someone else is living

The hate is given and the smiles are earned by being fake

Give him some hope and let him know its gonna be ok

Don't wanna stop, but you don't wanna go, and you don't want to see what you already know, and you don't wanna be what you hate but can't escape what you ain't so let it go

He's painfully normal and strange

The history of the cycle of things that never change

It's hard to see life standing from that tower ain't it?

If all that matters is the popularity conveited

That bus stops and you couldn't say hi

You find a week later that he died from a suicide

[Chorus: Nick Zoppo]

Tried to pretend we were blind

But the only thing it left is this hole in your chest

So you stare into space hoping for change

But you're still trapped in this maze

And now you're only to blame

[Verse 2: Ekoh]

The bell rings she walks into the lunchroom

Like "can I sit here?"

"Naw there's not enough room"

There never is at the table of popular kids

Not at all until she eats inside the bathroom stall

Nothing new because alone is constant

You see her getting picked on but never stand up to stop it

Things are different but that reputation is earned

And she never had a friend that felt that ever felt like a friend to her

Don't wanna go but you don't want to stay, so you live on a hope and that hope is to make, to take it break it down until there's beauty in these damn mistakes

Another change killed the cycle of monotony

Shes praying for another option

Tell her that there's gotta be!

But you won't you're gonna watch her suffer

And not because you want to

You're scared to help one another

All it takes is some words and a smile

But you don't have the time and she ain't even worth your while

[Chorus: Nick Zoppo]

Tried to pretend we were blind

But the only thing it left is this hole in your chest

So you stare into space hoping for change

But you're still trapped in this maze

And now you're only to blame

[Chorus: Nick Zoppo, Ekoh]

Tried to pretend we were blind

But the only thing it left is this hole in your chest

So you stare into space hoping for change

But you're still trapped in this maze (uh, yeah, uh, yeah)

And now you're only to blame

[Outro: Ekoh, Nick Zoppo]

And do you have what it takes

Takes to make a change

Do you have what it takes to change?

'Cause if we all say nothing, it all stays the same

Do you have what it takes to make a change

Heart to heart, we got you on this one man

It's a moment it won't last forever

And if you fall we all fall

Together
