When I Fall
Embracing Vulnerability: When I Fall by Sam Phillips Unveils the Human Struggle
Lyrics
We don't want lives of steel
We desire lives that are not rigid or unyielding.
We don't want hearts that feel
We prefer not to have emotionally detached or indifferent hearts.
We want to live above it all
We aspire to live above the challenges and difficulties of life.
I feel you closing in
The sense of someone or something approaching is felt.
A target on my skin
Feeling vulnerable with a figurative target on one's skin.
I think you'll be there when I fall
Anticipation that the person or support will be present during difficult times.
We might get out of time
Uncertainty about the progression of time or the relationship.
We might connect our minds
Hopeful about establishing a mental or emotional connection.
We might land beyond the wall when I fall
Possibility of reaching a destination beyond obstacles when facing challenges.
I might give love to you
Considering the potential of expressing love.
I might step right on through
Contemplating the decision to move forward despite fear.
Fear might keep me from it all
Fear has the potential to hinder or prevent complete engagement.
I climb so high to see
Striving for a higher perspective but facing disappointment.
But the ground just teases me
The ground below remains elusive, creating a sense of longing.
I think you'll be there when I fall
Expectation that support will be available during a potential fall.
I'm burning
An emotional state of burning intensity.
When I fall
Emphasizing the repeated experience of falling.
I fall
Reiterating the act of falling.
When I fall
Repetition of the theme of falling.
I'm amazed by it all
Expressing astonishment or wonderment in the face of it all.
Control is letting go
Suggesting that control is achieved by letting go.
And I'm the last to know
Realization that comes belatedly, being the last to understand.
We might land beyond the wall
Potential landing or resolution beyond obstacles.
I might give love to you
Reiteration of the potential expression of love.
I might step right on through
Considering the possibility of moving forward despite fear.
I think you'll be there when I fall
Anticipation of support during a potential fall.
