Falling

(Verse 1)

The world moves on, but I stand still,

A shadow lost on a windowsill.

Smiling faces, passing by,

While I’m stuck beneath the sky.

The weight is heavy, the nights are long,

I’ve been silent, but I’m not strong.

Screaming inside, but no one hears,

Drowning in a sea of years.

(Chorus)

Falling, fading, slipping through,

Tired of fighting, don’t know what to do.

If I let go, will the world still spin?

Will the light ever let me in?

Falling, fading, can’t hold on,

Feels like the colors are almost gone.

(Verse 2)

I trace my thoughts like cracks in glass,

Wondering how long this will last.

A war inside I’ve never won,

Waking up feels overdone.

I know they say, “You’re not alone,”

But echoes don’t feel like home.

The weight of words, they start to blur,

Another day feels so unsure.

(Chorus)

Falling, fading, slipping through,

Tired of fighting, don’t know what to do.

If I let go, will the world still spin?

Will the light ever let me in?

Falling, fading, can’t hold on,

Feels like the colors are almost gone.

(Bridge)

But maybe—just maybe—

The night will break, the dawn will call,

A hand will reach before I fall.

A voice will whisper, “Stay with me,”

And somehow, I’ll finally see.

(Outro)

Falling, fading—but not tonight,

Maybe I’ll wait for one more light.

Maybe I’ll stay, maybe I’ll fight,

Maybe, just maybe… I’ll be alright.
