Free Fall

Ooh, the colors stay
The colors stay brighter on my phone
Don't like how I feel when I'm alone
But then who does
And the people say, yeah
The people say time, it isn't real
But that doesn't change the way it feels
Like it never was
And I'm flying high above the clouds
I know I'll be fine as long as I do not look down
But I'm trying, trying as I might
To focus long enough to have this conversation tonight
Baby, won't you take my hand? My feet don't know where to land
Heartstrings pulling me into the stratosphere
Hold me safe and hold me sound, Firmly planted on the ground
Eyes wide open, waiting for the clouds to clear
And I keep chasing, chasing that loose thread
Over my shoulder, through my ear, and deep within my head
But I'm wasting, wasting all my time
Avoiding something unavoidable, all tequila, no lime
Baby, won't you take my hand? My feet don't know where to land
Heartstrings pulling me into the stratosphere
Hold me safe and hold me sound, Firmly planted on the ground
Eyes wide open, waiting for the clouds to clear
And as the minutes slip like grains of sand through my clenched fist
Well I'd give anything to stay a moment longer just like this
Baby, won't you take my hand? My feet don't know where to land
Heartstrings pulling me away beyond the call
Help me get upright again, Fighting here against the wind
Bracing for the impact from my free, free fall
