LYRICS=
In this dreaming life,
it’s not what it seems,
and a lot less than that
when you traffic in dreams
Life rattles our cages
and we transform in stages
until we are gone...
and then life goes on...
cause. we... keep falling... away
Tell me what’s the point
of the whole masquerade?
This strange costume ball
This mindless charade?
They live and die
for the thrill of it all,
and then, it’s all gone,
and you’re nowhere at all
We keep falling away...
We keep falling away...
Even when we ask directions,
we keep falling away
Then we change directions,
and still fall away.
What will we do
when the shit hits the fan?
I could work on my syntax...
and be big in Japan.
The wind walks the night
through the back streets of town.
A fat guy’s eating Pringles
where the street hoods get down...
It’s all part of the plot
til the reaper comes round
It holds your attention,
till the reaper comes round.
It’s a cartoon in the mind
and a back door display
of a twerking malfunction
that was not born that way
You think you’ve arrived,
and where would that be?
I hear them singing...
fall harder with me!
We keep falling away...
We keep falling away...
Even when we ask directions,
we keep falling away
Then we change directions,
and still fall away.
Time makes a point
of restrictions in space,
and our manhood gets lost
in the curtains and lace.
The psychologists laugh...
Culture goes down the drain
Maybe I’ll get a brush
and paint castles in Spain.
It’s a grind either way,
same shit, different day
I try to stay centered
But... I’m falling away
You think you’ll be fine
with the things that you do
just as long as those things
still work out for you
We keep falling away...
We keep falling away...
Even when we ask directions,
we keep falling away
Then we change directions,
and still fall away.
The World’s on a schedule.
Birds turn on a dime.
It’s a short burst of joy,
at the end of the line
Then you are falling.
just falling again,
where did it start?
and where does it end?
Maybe don’t try so hard.
Maybe not try at all
to get back in the play
cause the game
makes no sense
and... you’ll just fall away
You’ll just... keep on... falling away
You will just... keep falling... away.
