Story Behind The Song
"I?m falling? was one of the first songs the band fully collaborated on. John (the bass player) was noodling around on a catchy little line before practice one night?Aimee (the drummer) started banging out a groove underneath?Anthony (the lead guitar player) threw out the catchy guitar intro and the song?s melody immediately popped into my head. I must confess, however, the song?s chorus did not come to me until a week later while I was visiting the lavatory.
Song Description
?I?m falling? is your typical verse/chorus pop rock song with a catchy intro guitar riff and a powerful chorus hook. This particular recording of the song was sourced from a live demo Hooray Henry shops around to book gigs. I should note that the song?s lyrics were not finished at the time the song was recorded.

Lyrics
Verse 1
I see everyone is there
Taking all you care
Fight me for a friend
I?ll show you where I?ve been
The world was all inside
Taking all you hide
Will you let me in tonight?
I?ll take it back
Chorus
I?m falling, down
I?m falling, down
Verse 2
I see everything so clear
So picturesque it?s near
You couldn?t stand the pain
Will it ever be the same?
You let our worlds collide
There?s nowhere left to hide
Will you let me in tonight?
I?ll take it back
Chorus
I?m falling, down
I?m falling, down
I?m falling, down
I?m falling, down
Bridge
You don?t know a thing but I don?t care
Only wanted one thing for sure
Chorus
I?m falling, down
I?m falling, down
I?m falling, down
I?m falling, down
