What Falls Down

What falls down

eventually hits the ground,

and we’ll all fall down

Those who dive down

eventually drown,

and we’ll all fall down

See me,

see me falling

I’m desperate

I am calling

No one will come and save me

They sit on their high crowns

And what falls down

eventually hits the ground,

and we’ll all fall down

Fools who act like clowns

eventually turn the town,

and we’ll all fall down

Look out on the city

It’s a dark, dark place

The time’s ticking

Can you beat the race?

Lives, mine and yours, in the stillness hang,

more than thoughts, more than words, more than nouns

And what falls down

eventually hits the ground,

and we’ll all fall down

We’ll make all the renown

turn into worried frowns,

and we’ll all fall down

Because what falls down

eventually hits the ground,

and we’ll all fall down
