I was falling,
Falling out of love
That was never there.
I never meant to hurt you.
Did you mean to hurt me?
I turned away so you wouldn't have to see my tears
I cried until I was empty
But when I turned back around to apologize
You had disappeared.
I walked around the world looking for you
Calling your name until my throat was raw.
Maybe I was looking in all the wrong places,
Or maybe you just didn't want to reply.
I was dependent on you,
I needed you.
At least, that's what you told me.
Without you, I'd be rotting
So who was I to complain?
You told me those words so often
That I started to believe them.
Afraid to come to you
Like I had once upon a time
Because you would just wave me away.
That was the final night
When I had had enough,
I told you so,
And then things got rough.
Well, I still have scars on my arms and legs
And on my heart too
Even now, years later,
I'm still falling out of love
Falling with you.
