Falling Away Lyrics

i'm waiting
wait to bolt away my breath
i'm gone, i'm gone

i'm staying
though you act though i've grown legs
i'm gone, i'm gone

in the crowd i'm drowning
no one's around me
in your arms, my whole world's falling away

<i>my armor left in bundles on the floor
can't hide anymore
my shadow so much darker than before
can't see anymore</i>

in the crowd i'm drowning
no one's around me
sailing by, my whole world is falling away

<b>and i'm sorry that i've stopped your ways
but you can have me when you're on your way in
and i'm sorry that you feel this way
sorry that you stopped to say
you couldn't stop to stay
you couldn't stop to stay
you couldn't stop to stay</b>

i'm waiting
fear is bursting in my breath
i'm gone, i'm gone

in the crowd i'm drowning
no one can find me
let me stop surrounding, i'm falling away

<b><i>you couldn't stop at all
you couldn't stop</i>

i'm sorry that it's not two ways</b>

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

lovely. maybe saying that she "falls away" when she is with this guy and she is totally in love with him? i think? my guess anyway. "my armor left in bundles on the floor can't hide anymore my shadow so much darker than before can't see anymore" go the like!
