Falling
Falling Back to You: A Poetic Descent into Love's Abyss
Lyrics
You dabbled in magic
You experimented with mystical practices
Holding me down with ancient gymnastics
Controlling me with ancient, deceptive maneuvers
You led me around, your blade always rising up my thigh-line
You guided me, your influence always ascending along my thigh
Higher still, when you told me
Reaching higher heights when confessing love
I love you
Expressing love with a kiss during the autumn
With a kiss in the autumn
As foolish as someone reminiscing about Sodom
As dumb as before a look back at Sodom
I entered your world, experiencing a confusing ecstasy
I fell through your door to a rope-a-dope rapture
Where your intimacy overwhelmed and bruised me
Where, baby, your legs opened me up and pummeled me blue
Reflecting on my appearance, affected by the experience
Now I'm glaring at my hairline
Obsessing over my receding hairline
And I'm looking at photos of you
Contemplating images of you in photographs
How'd I get so god damn ugly?
Questioning my self-worth, feeling unattractive
I'll never do better than
Doubting the possibility of finding someone better than you
How will I ever do better than you?
Pondering the challenge of surpassing your influence
How will I ever do better than you?
Repeated questioning of finding someone better
How will I ever do better than you?
Continued uncertainty about surpassing you
Visions unspoken
Unspoken dreams or aspirations
A car in a tree, a splash in the ocean
Imagery of a car in a tree and a splash in the ocean
To think is to suffer, I see it now
Realization that thinking leads to suffering
Thought, that's the poison
Identifying thoughts as a toxic element
Baby girl, what I now know, knowing you
Addressing the knowledge gained from knowing you
Now I'm glaring at my hairline
Returning focus to personal appearance and photos of you
And I'm looking at photos of you
Reiterating the impact on self-perception
How'd I get so god damn ugly?
Expressing dissatisfaction with personal appearance
I'll never do better than you
Doubting the possibility of finding someone better
How will I ever do better than you?
Repeating the uncertainty about surpassing you
How will I ever do better than you?
Continued questioning of finding someone better
How will I ever do better than you?
Ongoing doubt about surpassing your influence
Is anyone better than you?
Raising the question of whether anyone is better than you
You
Addressing you directly
You
Repeating the address to you
Despite it all I guess I'm falling back to you
Despite challenges, acknowledging the pull back to you
Despite it all I guess I'm falling back to you
Reiterating the acknowledgment of returning to you
Despite it all I guess I'm falling back to you
Continued acknowledgment of falling back to you
Despite it all I guess I'm falling back to you
Repeating the acknowledgment of falling back to you
How will I ever do better than you?
Repeating the question of surpassing you
I guess that I am falling back
Acknowledging the ongoing process of falling back
How will I ever do better than you?
Repeating the doubt about surpassing your influence
I guess that I am falling back
Acknowledging the ongoing process of falling back
How will I ever do better than you?
Repeating the doubt about surpassing your influence
I guess that I am falling back
Acknowledging the ongoing process of falling back
How will I ever do better than you?
Repeating the doubt about surpassing your influence
I guess that I am falling
Continuing to acknowledge the ongoing process of falling back
