Tripped and Fell in Portland Songtext
von Breathe Carolina

(The secret′s out
Our lips are wide as oceans
I sold my eyes for emerald dimes
The edges blur, the walls are bending)

You bite like you don't have any teeth to break my skin
I feel like she′s on fire
And every room is another world I'm walking in
We couldn't get much higher

I tripped and fell so deep I can′t come down
How did you run into a door that′s wide open
Get a hold of yourself
I tripped and fell so deep I can't come down

(Our hands are melting maps
Balancing on a fence
The change made no sense
The edges stir, the walls are dancing)


I steal everything just to give it back again
Trust me I′m a liar
And all the words I bought, they aren't worth anything.
We couldn′t get much higher

I tripped and fell so deep I can't come down
How did you run into a door that′s wide open
Get a hold of yourself
I tripped and fell so deep I can't come down

(Brace yourself
There's no way out
We left our minds behind
Climbing the blinds
Fabricating time, till we come back to life)

I tripped and fell so deep
I tripped and fell so deep I can′t come down
How did you run into a door that′s wide open
Get a hold of yourself
I tripped and fell so deep I can't come down

(Into a door that′s wide open
Get a hold of yourself)
I tripped and fell so deep I can't come down


Please forgive me
I don′t wanna hurt anymore
My heart is broken

Can I take you home
Open yourself up to me and surrender
Can I take you home
Lock out the world and stay here forever
