Falling Up
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Things were happening
I felt the weight of the expectation on my chest
My mind was traveling
But I swear that I don't remember where it went
They said things will grow in
So why do I feel like nothing at all is left?
So I'll keep on moving
If I'm standing still then I'll feel the emptiness
'Cause I get so lonely and you get so low
And I looked so stupid when I lose control
I'm alone in my bedroom and the walls are caving in
And I thought I'd be happy but I'm barely breathing
Oh, I'm barely breathing
'Cause I'm feeling down, but I'm falling up
And I'm breaking out, but not out of luck
As I breathe the air into my lungs
I wanted everything but nothing's ever good enough
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I gotta change me
And if I wake up now there's a chance to start again
But if I wait
Could I get back to the place where it all began before?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I got so lonely and you got so low
And I looked so stupid when you came to my show
I'm alone in the spotlight, and the walls are caving in
And I thought I'd be happy, but I'm barely breathing
Ooh, I'm barely breathing
'Cause I'm feeling down, but I'm falling up
And I'm breaking out, but not out of luck
As I breathe the air, into my lungs
I wanted everything but nothing's ever good enough
Oh, oh, oh, oh
And I hate the man that I've turned into
Oh, oh, oh, oh
And I've come so far, what did I lose?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
And I swear to God I will make it through
I'll make it through
'Cause I get so lonely and you get so low
And I looked so stupid, when you came to my show
I'm alone in the spotlight, and the walls are caving in
And I thought I'd be happy, but I'm barely breathing
Ooh, I'm barely breathing
'Cause I'm feeling down, but I'm falling up
And I'm breaking out, but not out of luck
As I breathe the air, into my lungs
I wanted everything but nothing's ever good enough
