Analysis of Fall Behind
Amber Shay Allen 1991 (Martinsvilee)
I can fall behind
And take the vaulter
Of my soul I left my life
And with my security
Go I can drown myself
In the mistakes lives I made
Also in the blood I can
Destory my memories just
To cry and kill any trace of love
I can kiss the force
Of evil never try to
Look back I can kill
Myself for salvation
I can kill my spirit
To launch I can watch
My mine flue up with
My heart fly free
I don't care do it
But I must destroy all of me
