I know it can hold us down
we always thought we would be safe and sound
And it's hard to recognize
before you know it all the lights are down

I'm not the only one, seen it everywhere
It breaks down all the things we thought we knew
I start to learn again, but it's still the same
it's all the same and it's all the same

Ieeie gotta keep myself from falling
OOh, OOhh, ooh gotta keep myself from falling
Fall Fall, into that same old hole
I thought it was another four-letter word
Putting in time and wasting my time and
High High, was such a high, sigh sigh
relief the first time, I saw you pass by by
everything was fine

I'm not the only one, it's bad and fucked up
we seem to get hooked on
bad vibes hearts in their hands
as much as we love it
I've had enough cause

OOh, ooh, ooh Gotta keep myself from falling
OOh, ooh, ooh Gotta keep myself from falling

Some call it love and it hurts so much
OOh, ooh, ooh Gotta keep myself from falling
OOh, ooh, ooh Gotta keep myself from falling

All my life I stayed inside
thought I was bright, a different kind
It's all getting easier now
I'm getting closer now
Against the tide I'm no young man
putting money and time in a crazy ass plan
I'm getting older now, time to be growing now
I hadn't seen, done or compromised much
so full of life had me hypnotized
I'm getting over now, feel like I get it now
No place to hide, it's my own mind, t
here ain't no other fight
I got some closure now, I'm getting closer now
