Falling Is Like This Lyrics by Ani DiFranco

Falling Is Like This Lyrics

    You give me that look that's like laughing
    with liquid in your mouth
    like you're choosing between choking
    and spitting it all out
    like you're trying to fight gravity
    on a planet that insists
    that love is like falling
    and falling is like this

    Feels like reckless driving when we're talking
    It's fun while it lasts, and it's faster than walking
    But no one's going to sympathize when we crash
    They'll say "you hit what you head for, you get what you ask"
    and we'll say we didn't know, we didn't even try
    one minute there was road beneath us, the next just sky

    I'm sorry I can't help you, I cannot keep you safe
    I'm sorry I can't help myself, so don't look at me that way
    we can't fight gravity on a planet that insists
    that love is like falling
    and falling is like this.
