Lyrics
Falling Down
Katie Burns
Footsteps fade in the earth
Gone to the dirt
Leaves fall like rain drops down
Pools brown
Mirrors say what they want
A ripple in the pond
Rooftops point to the sky
So why can't I
We're falling down
Waisting away
Come back some how
Promises break
We're falling down, down down
down down down
Down down down
Telephone lines listen to you
You talk in your sleep, but I already knew
I already knew
We're falling down down down
It all goes down down down
Ladders lean on trees
And I crumble
We're falling down down down
Falling down down down
Down down down
Timing the streetlights just right
To get to the other side
