Tears For Fears - Falling Down lyrics
[Tears For Fears - Falling Down lyrics]
Is this world spinning round?
Has this ship run aground?
What's that shape, what's that sound?
That's just me falling down
Some of us are free, some are bound
Some will swim, some will drown
Some of us are saints, some are clowns
Just like me, they're falling down
Well I lied to the nation
While my reputation ran dry
From my lungs to my liver
I clung to the riverbank's side
Yeah, well I'm back in the water
Doing what I ought to
Trying to lead an ordinary life
Is this world spinning round?
Has this ship run aground?
What's that shape, what's that sound?
That's just me falling down
Some of us are green, some are brown
Some are lost, some are found
Sight unseen baby, sound on sound
Pray for me, I'm falling down
I was lost in the jungle
Crossed over enemy lines
Well I got me a red nose
By sleeping under hedgerows at night
Yeah, well I tried levitation
Flying in formation
Heaven knows the weight of this crime
Is this, is this world spinning round?
Has this ship run aground?
What's that shape, what's that sound?
That's just me falling down
La, la, la, la la la la, la, la, la la la
La, la, la, la la la la, la, la, la la la
Falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down falling down
Has this ship run aground?
What's that shape, what's that sound?
That's just me falling down
Some of us are free, some are bound
Some will swim, some will drown
Some of us are saints, some are clowns
Just like me, they're falling down
Well I lied to the nation
While my reputation ran dry
From my lungs to my liver
I clung to the riverbank's side
Yeah, well I'm back in the water
Doing what I ought to
Trying to lead an ordinary life
Is this world spinning round?
Has this ship run aground?
What's that shape, what's that sound?
That's just me falling down
Some of us are green, some are brown
Some are lost, some are found
Sight unseen baby, sound on sound
Pray for me, I'm falling down
I was lost in the jungle
Crossed over enemy lines
Well I got me a red nose
By sleeping under hedgerows at night
Yeah, well I tried levitation
Flying in formation
Heaven knows the weight of this crime
Is this, is this world spinning round?
Has this ship run aground?
What's that shape, what's that sound?
That's just me falling down
La, la, la, la la la la, la, la, la la la
La, la, la, la la la la, la, la, la la la
Falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down falling down
