Blink-182 – Fighting the Gravity Lyrics 14 years ago
Here are the exact lyrics taken from the booklet in the album

This makes no sense

This air is too thick to breathe, so just drive
These eyes are too sick to see, don't leave me behind
Something's swimming in my blood
Something's rotting in my brain
Lungs smothered from the flood
I can't recognize your face
I need to leave, so just drive

Burning Lights on the street, I'm fighting the gravity
When I'm beat and defeated they'll take you away from me
Dead and lost in a dream, this is the last of me
I'm always fighting the gravity

Tonight is too much for me to get through
Tomorrow's just a darkened hall to an empty room
When I'm far away from you

Blink-182 – Fighting the Gravity Lyrics 14 years ago
Most of what JimboTSoV is right. I directly relate to this song, I am living the meaning of this song right now. The gravity that's spoken of in this song represent the fatal attraction for one of the two persons in the relations. As it makes no sense to fight gravity, it makes no sense for me to get away ad move on from the one I love because she means the world to me and I can't comprehend what's happened for her to have changed so much. She is cold and distant with me and can't see the good she used to see in me. How do you move on from being with someone that at one time adored you and felt exactly the same way as you still feel? It feels impossible like breaking a law of physics. I am every day pulled towards the need to fight for what we had. It is very frustrating. Every night is hard to get through and tomorrow only opens a door to a deep anguishing feeling of solitude. "Dead and lost in a dream" is like dwelling in memories of everything we had it's like it all never happened, surreal. Anyways that's how I feel about this song, it might not be exactly that.
