Beneath The Fall

(Verse 1 — Seether/Breaking Benjamin mood)

I’ve been livin’ in the shadows of the choices that I made,

Tryna wash away the memories but the stains will never fade.

I’ve been carryin’ the battles that I never meant to start,

With a smile that’s just a bandage on a complicated heart.

(Pre-Chorus — tense, emotional lift)

You say the pain will pass if I can learn to let it go—

But you never felt the weight of what I never let you know.

(Chorus — Big, heavy, Breaking Benjamin + Creed energy)

Pull me up before I’m drownin’,

Hold me through the thunder when I break.

If the world comes crashin’ down around me—

Promise me I’m not a lost mistake.

I’ve been fightin’ through the fire,

Tryna stand again through every fall.

But if I lose myself tomorrow—

Will you catch me

Beneath the fall?

⸻

(Verse 2 — Saliva grit)

Yeah—

I’ve been battlin’ the demons that I swear I never chose,

Every time I rise to face ‘em, there’s another one that grows.

I’ve been runnin’ toward the light, but it keeps slippin’ from my sight,

Feels like every step I’m takin’ gets erased by every fight.

(Pre-Chorus — Seether-style tension)

You say I’m strong enough to stand, to rise above it all—

But you’ve never heard the echo of the times I tried to call.

⸻

(Chorus — heavier, more emotional)

Pull me up before I’m drownin’,

Hold me through the thunder when I break.

If the world comes crashin’ down around me—

Promise me I’m not a lost mistake.

I’ve been fightin’ through the fire,

Tryna stand again through every fall.

But if I lose myself tomorrow—

Will you catch me

Beneath the fall?

⸻

(Bridge — Creed/A7X-style uplift + Breaking Benjaminesque heaviness)

I’ve been reachin’ for a reason,

I’ve been clawin’ through the dark.

Every lie becomes a prison

When you weld it to the heart.

If the truth becomes a burden,

If the night begins to call—

Will you be the voice that saves me

When the shadows start to fall?

⸻

(Breakdown — heavy Saliva/BB feel)

I’m not runnin’ anymore—

I’m not breakin’ like before.

If the world wants me to bleed—

Let it spill onto the floor.

I’m not beggin’ you to stay,

I’m not askin’ you to change—

Just don’t leave me in the darkness

When the light gets rearranged.

⸻

(Final Chorus — biggest, most emotional)

Pull me up before I’m drownin’,

Hold me through the thunder when I break.

If the world comes crashin’ down around me—

Promise me I’m not a lost mistake.

I’ve been fightin’ through the fire,

Tryna stand again through every fall.

But if I lose myself tomorrow—

Will you catch me

Beneath the fall?
