falling is like this.

you give me that look
like you're choosing between choking
and spitting it all out
like you're trying fight gravity
on a planet that insists

feels like reckless driving when we're talking
it's fun while it lasts
and it's faster than walking
but no one's going to sympathize when we crash
they'll say you hit what you head for, you get what you ask
and we'll say we didn't know
we didn't even try

one minute there was road beneath us
the next just sky
