Duran Duran
Falling Down
[Verse 1]
Once was a man who consumed his place and time
He thought nothing could touch him
But here and now, it's a different storyline
Like the straw he is clutching

[Pre-Chorus]
Why has the sky turned grey? (Why has the sky turned grey?)
Hard to my face and cold on my shoulder
And why has my life gone astray? (And why has my life gone astray?)
Scarred by disgrace, I know that it's over

[Chorus]
Because I'm falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time, could I find someone out there to help me?

[Verse 2]
Howl at the wind rushing past my lonely head
Caught inside in slow motion
How I wish it was somebody else instead
Howling at all this corrosion?

[Pre-Chorus]
Why did the luck run dry? (Why did the luck run dry?)
Laugh in my face, so pleased to desert me
Why do the cruel barbs fly? (Why do the cruel barbs fly?)
Now when disgrace can no longer hurt me
[Chorus]
Because I'm falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time, could I find someone out there to help me?
You see, I'm falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time, could I find someone out there to help me?

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Because I'm falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time, could I find someone out there to help me?
You see, I'm falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time, could I find someone out there to help me?

[Post-Chorus]
I don't know where to go
I don't know, here I go
[Instrumental Outro]
