lyrics

Maybe this isn’t part of the plan
The words that you’re saying to me
I know but I don’t understand
Suddenly there’s no oxygen
The room starts to spin around
So much noise without a sound

I remember falling faster
Like an elegant disaster
Tell me, where did I go wrong?
I thought that we were strong
When you let go

Maybe I should have been more prepared
But I didn’t see it at all
Stumbling before the fall
Unaware of it all

I remember falling faster
Like an elegant disaster
I am weightless in my chest
Holding on to breath
When you let go

I still remember a better time
When the weight of the world wasn’t mine
Gravity pulling me
But that’s just the price I pay for wanting you
I remember falling
I remember falling

I remember falling faster
Like an elegant disaster
Tell me, where did I go wrong?
I thought that we were strong
When you let go
When you let go
When you let go
