letra de pride before a fall - the human project

when they find you swinging from the rafters in your penthouse pen, oblivion might not seem so funny – cos mighty men fall furthest when they present this fake macho front
you were so close, but you can’t see behind that wall
you were so close, but so callous, so insecure
that day on the train, did you imagine that i felt the same when you said “he’s only got himself to blame”?
wipe the sh-t from your grin cos i’m sure that you’ll go out in style

one mile is not enough
one mile
talk tall, talk tough
one milе in their shoes, have you еver thought you are the reason that he couldn’t go one mile more?

you’re not living in the here and now, so tell me how you’re punching down the already trodden?
your conscience slipped but once it’s flipped and you’re stuck in it you’ll soon be forgotten
so close but searching for something more
so close to the sanctuary of the shore

that day on the train we laughed our way through the strain – but she seemed so absent and frail, like she’d already checked out
but she still raised a glass and a smile

one mile is not enough
one mile. talk tall, talk tough
one mile in their shoes, have you ever thought you are the reason that she couldn’t go one mile more?
so give me your big idea, cos we’re all drowning here

that crash-cart’s coming for us all
you might start running when it calls, and you know it – pride before a fall
i always wonder, and so do you – what pulled them under?
what pulls us through?
we’re none of us immune to a self-destructive brain
that day on the train i still imagine if he felt afraid, or just glad to be rid of the pain, and i’m just glad we’re not all so uncaring and stuck in denial

one mile
