These back steps are steeper to the ground
The brightest stars are falling down
I'm walking the edge, walking the tightest rope

We can be frank, reality rips on through, rolling like a hurricane
I'm over the bridge and under the rain
If everything's falling, if everything's changed
If I'm in the open, if I'm in the way

Chorus:
What am I doing here
If you're not with me
What have I got to live for, if it's just my own dream
Take it back to the beginning, back to the start
When gravity's pulling, you're still holding my heart
You come crashing down
Crashing down

These four walls are closing in on me
The talk is louder than I'll sing
I want to be there, want to be where you are
But you know it all, Every look and smile that aren't meant to break
I'm over the bridge and under the rain

Chorus:
If everything's falling, if everything's changed
If I'm in the open, if I'm in the way
What am I doing here
If you're not with me
What have I got to live for, if it's just my own dream
Take it back to the beginning, back to the start
When gravity's pulling, you're still holding my heart
You come crashing down
Crashing down
Crashing down

And you say that everything is different, why don't we just hold on
You say that everything is different, why don't we just hold on

(5x's)
Crashing down

You come crashing down
You come crashing down
