Walking & Falling Lyrics
I wanted you. And I was looking for you.
But I couldn't find you.
I wanted you. And I was looking for you all day.
But I couldn't find you. I couldn't find you.
You're walking. And you don't always realize it,
but you're always falling.
With each step you fall forward slightly.
And then catch yourself from falling.
Over and over, you're falling.
And then catching yourself from falling.
And this is how you can be walking and falling
at the same time.
But I couldn't find you.
I wanted you. And I was looking for you all day.
But I couldn't find you. I couldn't find you.
but you're always falling.
With each step you fall forward slightly.
And then catch yourself from falling.
Over and over, you're falling.
And then catching yourself from falling.
And this is how you can be walking and falling
at the same time.

No comments? Well I'm proud to be the first! This is such a meditation, this "song." I think it is about the way the heart falls and catches itself. We need to believe in one another to cope with life, but then we also cannot help but doubt other people, to doubt their love, or that they really are there with us on our journey in life. We all fear being truly alone in the universe.
