Falling Through

I never pay enough attention
and I’ll probably forget to mention
you’ll be okay
but I never got beyond this
reasonless, self-defense
but what if we both decided
to open all the doors wide and
run straight through
would we find our way then
falling too, I fell right through

what if you misjudged me
put no one else above me (told all your friend you loved me)
and I never came through
what if you mistook me
for someone who was easy
to fall into
you’ll fall right through

I never got along with gravity
like all the trouble stuck to me
it just holds me down
she never thought that much of me
she lived her life on trampolines
barely ever touching down
but I don’t think I mind this
flightless time two less victims
one more crime
I think I’d rather stay grounded
stick with the trouble I found and
ease my mind

(Chorus)
