Falling Slowly
Capturing Unspoken Desires: Falling Slowly's Poetic Tale
Lyrics
I don’t know you
I am not acquainted with you
But I want you
Yet, I desire your presence
All the more for that
My desire intensifies because of that
Words fall through me
Spoken words do not deeply affect me
And always fool me
They consistently deceive me
And I can’t react
I find it difficult to respond
And games that never amount
Engaging in activities that lead nowhere
To more than they’re meant
They don't evolve into anything significant
Will play themselves out
Such pursuits will unfold on their own
Take this sinking boat and point it home
Accept this sinking situation and guide it towards home
We’ve still got time
There's still time to address the issue
Raise your hopeful voice; you have a choice
Express optimism; you have the power to choose
You’ll make it now
You will overcome it now
Falling slowly, eyes that know me
Gradually losing stability, eyes that understand me
And I can’t go back
I cannot revert to the past
Moods that take me and erase me
Emotions that consume and obliterate me
And I’m painted black
I feel overwhelmed and darkened
Well, you have suffered enough
You have endured sufficient hardships
And warred with yourself
And battled with your own inner conflicts
It’s time that you won
It's time for you to triumph
Take this sinking boat and point it home
Guide this sinking situation back towards home
We’ve still got time
There's still time to rectify
Raise your hopeful voice; you have a choice
Express optimism; you have the power to choose
You’ve made it now
You have succeeded now
Falling slowly sing your melody
Descending slowly, sing your comforting tune
I’ll sing it loud
I will sing it with strength and resonance
