Song Lyrics

Tell me the truth,
Is there nothing I can do
To escape this feeling blue
Except for leaving?
Tell me a lie
Like we're never going to die
Like we'll win with one more try
Or like I love you.

I am falling
I know you feel it
I am calling
You'd best not heed it
My depression
Has got me choosing doom and gloom
Over joy

Where did we fail?
It's not simple, there's no trail
We can't trace our steps and sail
Back where we started
You're not to blame
And it's nothing we can name
We'll just hang our heads in shame,
Broken hearted.

I am falling
I know you feel it
I am calling
You'd best not heed it
My depression
Has got me choosing doom and gloom
Over joy

I know it's hard
I know it's not fair
But things get easier
When I'm not there

I am falling
I know you feel it
I am calling
You'd best not heed it
My depression
Has got me choosing doom and gloom
Over joy
