Slipping Away

There's a moment before you fall

You seem to be invincible

You may think you have it all

You no longer feel invisible

.

You've reached the top,

The peak, the summit

Then suddenly you stop

And begin to plummet

.

The earth stands still

For just one moment

You no longer feel

That you still own it

.

You're falling, falling, falling

Slipping away

Nobody hears you calling

No, not today

.

People look your way

Hope rises in your chest

But then they turn away

As you're falling to your death

.

You're dropping, dropping, dropping

Slipping away

People around, but nobody's stopping

No, not today

.

.
