FALLING DOWN

Did I let on?
I had so much to say I couldn't get a word out
Did I let on?
When I came round?
We had to call it
The thing is, I miss you
Whenever it gets me down
I wonder if there's anybody like you
FALLING DOWN
I'LL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN
FALLING DOWN
WILL I EVER FEEL THIS -
I'LL NEVER FEEL THIS AGAIN
You're special
You had me off the ground since our eyes made contact
Didn't notice the magpie on my back
I got way too cerebral when you brought me drugs
And we got wrapped around shit talk concerning love
I thought we might kiss in that enduring hug
Instead we stayed in that Youtube trench that we dug I'm
FALLING DOWN
I'LL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN
FALLING DOWN
WILL I EVER FEEL THIS -
I'LL NEVER FEEL THIS
I'M
FALLING DOWN
I'LL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN
FALLING DOWN
WILL I EVER FEEL THIS -
I'LL NEVER FEEL THIS AGAIN
Will I ever feel this -
I'll never feel this again
I'm over it
I'm over it
This time I swear
It's out of necessity
I'm over it
I'm over it
Then you come back again I'm
FALLING DOWN
I'LL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN
FALLING DOWN
WILL I EVER FEEL THIS -
I'LL NEVER FEEL THIS
FALLING DOWN
I'LL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN
FALLING DOWN
WILL I EVER FEEL THIS -
I'LL NEVER FEEL THIS AGAIN

If I'm gonna take it all less serious it starts now
But I still wanna meet someone who thinks the world is strange
I'm a sucker for a poets love but we end up down
Still the surface is Netflix and office dynamics
And winter trips to Spain
I have no advice
I'm still wishing my life away
Thinking maybe I'll wait
But I'm feeling today
Someone's chosen my face
What the fuck do I say?
God it's getting
Real now
(I have no advice I still rely on my friends
I have no advice, I got a podcast I rinse
I have no advice, I think we know
I have no advice)
Maybe people who ghost just have unfinished business
I've been guilty a couple of times hiding in my tomb
Got a friend who swears that rum'll see them out of their shyness
But they keep ending up with tories in their room
I have no advice, guess I'm losing my grip too
Thinking maybe I'll wait
But I'm feeling today
Someone's chosen my face
What the fuck do I say?
God it's getting
Real now
(I have no advice I still rely on my friends
I have no advice, I got a podcast I rinse
I thought I was happy alone till I met you
I thought I would never think I want this)
I have no advice I still rely on my friends
I have no advice, I got a podcast I rinse
I thought I was happy alone till I met you
I thought
I thought
I have no advice I still rely on my friends
I have no advice, I got a podcast I rinse
I thought I was happy alone till I met you
I thought
I thought

Jenny,
I'm taking it easy
I really don't want to stay out
This town's a clattering of bugs
I really don't know much about
Jenny I feel like you hate me
I wish you would say it out loud
These pretty chains
And panic stains
If I cry don't ask me why we'll end up playing
Backseat Psychiatrist
With you and your friends again
Backseat Psychiatrist
I don't want to be like this
I know it's not easy
I know it's not easy
We were a beacon to war
In a town that was poor
In a town that was boring
And gnawed to the marrow
Our shadows
Enraged them to stay who we thought they were
(we thought they were)
We were a beacon to war
In a town that was poor
In a town that was boring
And gnawed to the marrow
Our shadows
Would cage us to stay who they thought we were
They thought we were
Playing
Backseat Psychiatrist
With you and your friends again

I wish it was happening
As I play back the night we met in the city
You were playing with an ice cube
With the tip of your straw
I say something along the lines of 'hey can I break that?'
Must have caught an autumn leaf in my bag
Cause you laughed
And I wish you would kiss me like I was gonna die tomorrow
Cause it feels like I might
All my friends were right
I could sabotage it all with a flick of my tongue
Cause I like you so much
It's all I can do not to run
I live for your silliness
You did an impression of Tess Daley
So bad my eyes were wet
And you sometimes spoke in simlish
And sung Paramore wrong
I can't remember a night I didn't walk home
The long way from our dates
I would dream you'd scheme to beat me there
And I'd see you in the doorway
I wish you would kiss me like I was gonna die tomorrow
Cause it feels like I might
All my friends were right
I could sabotage it all with a flick of my tongue
Cause I like you so much
It's all I can do not to run
And low and behold
Sometimes you don't
And they do
I'm getting older but it still
Breaks
Through
When the best things are happening
I shake like a mouse staring down a great tabby
With the garden safe behind it
Calling my name
It's like learning to climb the walls in under a minute
And all I can think of is I'm not gonna win it
I wish you would kiss me like I was gonna die tomorrow
Cause it feels like I might
All my friends were right
I could sabotage it all with a flick of my tongue
Cause I like you so much
It's all I can do not to run
And I wish you would miss me like I was gonna die tomorrow
And I know that's not right
All my friends were
I just sabotaged it all
I just like you so much
