When You Fall

Story Behind The Song

A local girl committed suicide by jumping off a bridge. She survived for three days. She was speaking to her mum on the phone at the time and was seen by lots of drivers on the road beneath. An intensive care nurse told me about how it affected her.

Lyrics

Step over the rail
Is anyone watching?
Got troubles to tell.
Is anyone watching?

Who will catch you?
Who will break your fall, make sense of it all?
I hope they're watching.

Beautiful view, everything is clearer.
Doubt seeping through, bury it deeper.
Find courage to fail and hope someone's watching.

Who will catch you?
Who will break your fall, make sense of it all?
I hope they're watching.
