Falling
I'm not afraid of heights
I'm afraid of falling
That cascading helplessness
I find it quite appalling
I'm not afraid of love
I'm afraid of falling
No gentle downward descent
A full on flat out sprawling
I'm more afraid to fall down instead of up
And out of love instead of in
So easy to get off balance
A change of mind, a shift of wind
