We can't fight gravity on a planet that insists that love is like falling and falling is like this. |

Falling Is Like This |
Don't tell me what they did to you as though you had no choice. Tell me, isn't that your picture? Isn't that your voice. |

We're led by denial like lambs to slaughter, serving empires of style and carbonated sugar water. |
