Falling Down

Someone's falling down tonight
While facing front you stand and scream for more
The room jumps hot and chucked aside
The empty cans teeter across the floor
But at the edge the girl who shows in every crowd
And never seems to have enough
Is tossed by waves of sound and up on music loud
When all at once it gets too much
Someone's falling down, someone's falling down
Because she can't stand no more
Someone's falling down
She says her mother kicked her out
She's got no name and no home to telephone
She's hitching rides and sleeping out
But she's OK with nowhere else to go
So what else can you do but simply pick her up
And watch her simply walk away
Does no-one care enough you know it's not enough
To put her on her feet again
Someone's falling down, someone's falling down
Is it me or you or who?
Someone's falling down
