Falling Down

Though you can’t hold back the time, we forget, the passing of days
when your back’s against the wall, playing hard to get, feeling oh so small
All the faces on the street, so polite but infinite mirrors deep,
When you’re falling down,
faces come out of the dark,
that hopeless sound,
they won’t bring us down,
Even drowning all alone, falling down
There’s a fire in your heart, it wears you down, gotta dig so deep,
burns you inside out,
Scared of the unknown, everybody talks got to get back on your feet,
nobody knows,
In our fortress made of glass whispering to ourselves, how long is all this
gonna last
When you’re falling down,
faces come out of the dark,
that hopeless sound,
they won’t bring us down,
Even drowning all alone, falling down.
Why the somber looking face, though
I’m weary, there’s an open gate, someone’s bound to take your place,
you must must keep at bay, the garden of hate.
Falling down…
Even drowning all alone, falling down.
