Notes: Made for bop_radar for Festivids 2010. Thanks for giving me an excuse to finally vid this movie! I loved your request because the things you mentioned were all my favorite things about The Fall, too. I hope I did it justice.

All comments and feedback appreciated.



I got a hand
So I got a fist
So I got a plan
It's the best that I can do
Now we'll say it's in God's hands
But God doesn't always have the best goddamn plans, does he?

I ain't quite the beauty
Pulls out two guns and shoots at the pretty, pretty view
I gotta keep thinking, things, hunters and kings
To block out the view, I gotta get
A new bell to ring
A new song to sing
A steady hand to ring
A readiness of things to do
I gotta get a new plan to bring to the people
People I can trick them into thinking anything
Oh when rust hits just right in the light
It's gold, it's gold

I got
Water and holes in my hands
I'm a digger of holes in the land of holes
And you know
It's the easiest way
And you know
It's the easiest way
So I go

Lalalalalala

The sons and daughters of hungry ghosts
I got water and I got holes, so
Lalalalalala
The sons and daughters of hungry ghosts

Lalalalalala

I got a hand
So I got a fist
So I got a plan
It's the best that I can do
Now we'll say it's in God's hands
But God doesn't always have the best goddamn plans, does he?

Lalalalalala
I can't believe in the guns
I can't believe in the view

I sing, sing
Lalalalalala

I can't believe in the hunters and kings

I got a new plan to bring
I got a new song to sing
And it goes
Lalalalalala

And you know it's the easiest way
And you know it's the easiest way

vids, festivids
