Crashing Down

(album: There's Nothing But Space, Man! - 2022)

Seasons changing
Leaves are falling to our feet
There's no escaping
Your steady hand
And my heart beats like a stranger
Wipe away the tears with my sleeve

You pull away from me
You tell me you made up your mind
I stare back vacantly
But you don't even meet my eyes
And then it hits me
This is where it ends for you and I

In a moment we can't undo this time

Everywhere I'm looking now
There's faces
Smiling at me in the crowd
I hate it
Don't they know that all around
My world's crashing down?

Please don't do this
I follow you into the street
From the pavement
I call your name
I must sound crazy to these people
So crazy to them all
But they would be the same
If they were 'bout to lose it all

In a moment we can't undo this time
Whoa

Everywhere I'm looking now
There's faces
Smiling at me in the crowd
I hate it
Don't they know that all around
My world's crashing down?

Every time I find the words
I can't speak
Talking only makes it worse
And I can't breathe
Don't they know that all around
My world's crashing down? (Down, down, down, down)

I couldn't love somebody else 'cause there ain't nobody
Tell me how much longer this will hurt
I couldn't love somebody else 'cause there ain't nobody
Someone, tell me how long this will hurt

Everywhere I'm looking now
There's faces
Smiling at me in the crowd
I hate it
Don't they know that all around
My world's crashing down?

Oh

Every time I find the words
I can't speak
Talking only makes it worse
And I can't breathe
Don't they know that all around
My world's crashing down?

Ooh

Don't they know that all around
My world's crashing down?
