Welcome Freefall
All these emotions
they linger in the dark
close enough to hold
but you never know where to start;
Left wanting to get closer
but you let me slip away;
I don’t want to be disappointed
but I know it’s the truth;
Nothing will ever feel as good as you;
You’re a painkiller;
It’s no wonder I constantly want a hit;
Stop asking me to admit it;
You already know what you do,
so don’t deny me what I need;
I don’t want to be disappointed
but I know it’s the truth;
Nothing will ever feel as good as you;
Coming for me you took my hand
gathering momentum built a deafening silence;
With an outcry the screams
began to tumble into peace,
plunging faster and faster into a crescendo;
I don’t want to be disappointed
but I know it’s the truth;
Nothing will ever feel as good as you;
It’s a welcome free fall you talked me into.
