Falling Up (guitar acoustics) Songtext
von Dean Lewis

Things were happening
I felt the weight of the expectation on my chest
My mind was traveling
But I swear that I don′t remember where it went
They said things were growing
So why do I feel like nothing at all is left?
So I'll keep on moving
If I′m standing still, then I'll feel the emptiness

'Cause I get so lonely, and you get so low
And I looked so stupid when I lose control
I′m alone in my bedroom and the walls are caving in
And I thought I′d be happy, but I'm barely breathing
Ooh, I′m barely breathing

'Cause I′m feeling down, but I'm falling up
And I′m breaking out, but not out of luck
As I breathe the air into my lungs
I wanted everything, but nothing's ever good enough


I gotta change me
And if I wake up now, there's a chance to start again
Hmm-hmm
But if I wait
Could I get back to the place where it all began before?

I got so lonely, and you got so low
And I looked so stupid when you came to my show
I′m alone in the spotlight, and the walls are caving in
And I thought I′d be happy, but I'm barely breathing
Ooh, I′m barely breathing

'Cause I′m feeling down, but I'm falling up
And I′m breaking out, but not out of luck
As I breathe the air into my lungs
I wanted everything, but nothing's ever good enough

(Ooh-ooh)
And I hate the man that I've turned into (ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)
And I′ve come so far, what did I lose?
(Ooh-ooh)
And I swear to God I′ll make it through (ooh-ooh)
I'll make it through (ooh-ooh)


′Cause I get so lonely, and you get so low
And I looked so stupid, when you came to my show
I'm alone in the spotlight, and the walls are caving in
And I thought I′d be happy, but I'm barely breathing
Ooh, I′m barely breathing

'Cause I'm feeling down, but I′m falling up
And I′m breaking out, but not out of luck
As I breathe the air into my lungs
I wanted everything, but nothing's ever good enough
