Falling from Insomniac by Brandon Brooks

Verse 1:

For every rock thrown
At your window,
There's a hundred nights spent counting up
Love songs lost in limbo.

Where does the music go when it
Slips through my lips and into the air?
What does it mean
If nobody cares?

I had no drive,
And no ambition.
Not much has changed, but hey,
I have days that I waste with tunnel vision.

I'm so terrified of failing at the things that I love,
And if it's all my fault,
It means that I never should have tried,
At all.

Pre-Chorus 1:

I don't even see
The people on the streets
When I pass them by,
When they pass me by.

Doesn't even phase me,
We're living in a haze
Til the next life.

Chorus 1:

I was falling
When my wings came off.
I kissed the sun,
And I missed the only time you

Called me,
When you needed me the most.
I'm a parasite to
Starve your host.

The night is young,
But so was I.
The days are cold,
And my throat is dry.

My voice is gone,
But little by little,
I'll get it back
In time.

Verse 2:

Through all the confusion,
Through the mouth of madness,
It was only the one time I turned to the
Bitter cold to cure my sadness.

But, The Night Before I planned on
Leaving through the garden gate,
That was the happiest
I've ever been.

Now I'm down a sister,
Down a father,
And I've lost some friends, but I never thought again,
That I shouldn't even bother.

Sure, I'm tired of writing through the lens
Of my sad, blue eyes,
But with them I can see you,
So I guess I'll be just fine.

Pre-Chorus 2:

Every single day,
Is a chance that I will take
To see this through,
To do what I can do.

Every single song
And all the things that I have done,
Were to get to you.

Chorus 2:

I'll be falling
When my wings come off,
I'll kiss the sun
And never miss the times that you

Call me,
When you need me the most.
You're the life that
I have chosen.

The night is young,
And so are we,
Our bed is warm,
When the days are freezing.

My voice is gone,
But little by little,
It's coming back
To me.

The hardest part is falling.
