the effects of gravity

 

 

 

 




VERSE ONE:

Just for a moment, I stood on the edge,
And gazed at the world down below,
I thought of the things I had done in my life,
And why I just had to let go.

Felt like my body was floating in air,
Felt like my mind was at peace,
But the ground kept on moving, the distance receding,
A lifeline that you can't release.

CHORUS:

Hopelessly falling, it's gravity calling,
Something is pulling us down,
It's the weight on your shoulders, that makes you feel older,
Something keeps dragging us down.

VERSE TWO:

It felt like the minutes had turned into hours,
And the hours had turned into days.
My heart started pumping, my head started thumping,
I watched as my life slipped away.

CHORUS:

Hopelessly falling, it's gravity calling,
Something is pulling us down,
It's the weight on your shoulders, that makes you feel older,
Something keeps dragging us down.

OUTRO:

Gravity's dragging us, dragging us down (REPEAT)
