Falling Down (with Nick Hexum of 311) Songtext
von 311

Yeah, you can carry on
You chip in, but it always comes back to me, yeah
Yeah, it took very long
To bring about this alchemy

I′m not the paragon
I'm nothin′ like what you made me out to be
The hill I'm buried on
Has been plod by a thousand feet

Mixed cause to build the walls
But they all come down the same
You must walk through the dark
To see the light again, yeah

I hear the voices, they called out
But they just lead me to falling (falling down)
I'm back where I started
So it seems that I′m all in (falling down)
All that I ever need, I′ve found inside myself (inside myself)
I'm never going to let them drag me back to Hell (falling)


No, I′m not dwelling on
The chirping of the birds from around the scene, yeah
I'd be better off
March into the drum of a heart that beats

So if your head is strong
Remember what you′ve done and what you've achieved
And when you′re dead and gone, gone
You'll leave behind your masterpiece

I hear the voices, they called out
But they just lead me to falling (falling down)
I'm back where I started
So it seems that I′m all in (falling down)
All that I ever need, I′ve found inside myself (inside myself)
I'm never going to let them drag me back to Hell

A thousand choices every day
And countless voices to complain
Making me crazy if I let them in my brain
I had to make a call to overhaul
Breaking on through the chains come through withdrawal
Something that seemed impossible, a way to liberate


I hear the voices, they called out
But they just lead me to falling (falling down)
I′m back where I started
So it seems that I'm all in (falling down)
All that I ever need, I′ve found inside myself (inside myself)
I'm never going to let them drag me back to Hell (falling)
