about

Falling's Easy: The circle seems neverending as the bridges burn in your wake, but you can always go home on your next spin around and start again... The eternal hope of a vicious cycle.

lyrics

Falling’s Easy

(3:19) Elfy Kornfeld, vocal and baritone ukulele; Rick Russell, guitar; Joshua Sill, mandolin; Terrell Jones, bass and harmony vocal

The rain turns to snow and you're driving slow cause
You're going home cause there's nowhere else to go so you
Come back to town where you burned your bridges down and you're
Trying not to drown while you're looking to get to higher ground

Falling's easy it's the landing that's hard or maybe
Landing's easy it's the getting up that's hard or maybe
Getting up is easy but the first steps are hard

You say you'll be late but he meets you at the gate and your
Father's face holds all the memories of this place and
Your mother's smile well it's been a while since you

Falling's easy it's the landing that's hard or maybe
Landing's easy it's the getting up that's hard or maybe
Getting up is easy but the first steps are hard

They know you here where you used to disappear into
Cigarettes and beer their disappointment thick and clear and
How do you begin when you have to pretend that
This isn't the end but you've circled round and round again

Falling's easy it's the landing that's hard or maybe
Landing's easy it's the getting up that's hard or maybe
Getting up is easy but the first steps are hard
