Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm falling in slow motion, the walls are closing in
My heart beats like broken bass, too fast, too empty
Thoughts dance in a ring like shards of glass
Every turn cuts deeper – I don't want to scream anymore
The mirror lies to me with strangers' eyes
Says: "You haven't been at home here for a long time"
I count scratches on my soul like notches
Each one a date when I almost broke
[Pre-Chorus]
And yet
somewhere deep down
something still flickers
that can't be extinguished
[Chorus]
I'm falling deep – yeah, damn deep
But I still have bones
Still teeth
Still this fucking willpower
that refuses to die
I'm falling deep – the floor is concrete
But I beat my fists bloody
until something inside me
starts beating again
like a human being
[Verse 2]
The pills are like chains And like a life preserver at the same time
Some days I swallow hope, some only chemicals
The diagnoses pile up like bills in the mailbox
Each one bears a stamp: "chronic – incurable – face it"
Friends grow quieter, some turn away
"You just have to think positively" – thanks, asshole, really
But some nights I still call
and someone answers – that alone sometimes keeps me alive
[Bridge]
There's no shortcut
No final boss fight with epic music
Just repetition
Getting up again
Showing teeth again
Breathing again, even though the air tastes like lead
[Chorus – a little louder, rougher]
I fall deep – screw how deep
But I crawl back into the light with broken nails
Blood in my mouth, dirt on my face
and this madness in my head that suddenly screams:
"Not yet! Not by a long shot!"
[Verse 3 – quieter, almost whispered]
Sometimes success is just
that I brushed my teeth today
that I got out of bed
that I said "no" to the impulse
that wanted to throw me out the window
Sometimes winning is
simply still being there
when all the other voices have long since left
[final chorus – with all my might]
I fall deep – yes, deep again and again
But the way up
consists of exactly these shitty little steps
that no one sees
that no one applauds
that only I feel
The key isn't talent
not luck
not the right therapy alone
The key is: I want.
And more than anything else in this shitty world, I want to live – I want to stay –
I want to become.
[Outro – only voice & soft breathing]
So fall deep, my heart
I'm taking a running start in free fall
And someday
someday
I'll spread my wings
…even if they're in tatters.
