Toyah - Falling To Earth lyrics

rate me

(willcox)<br />

I cannot sleep<br />

The saint in me eludes me<br />

This man is not what I think<br />

He is a halo of thorns,<br />

Spear in his side<br />

Coaxing me to earth<br />

A parachute eclipses the sun<br />

Hovers on the slipstream<br />

Hangs on every note<br />

He denies me his knowledge<br />

Eyes piercing and eagle bright<br />

Lifts me from my dull existence<br />

Hurls me off the cliff<br />

In clumsy flight<br />

Falling to earth...<br />

The air's so good it<br />

Gives nutrients and<br />

Your presence builds<br />

As you rumble on down the corridor.<br />

It's rockin' and I feel as if<br />

I'm floatin' in water but<br />

I'm not drowning<br />

I must be there<br />

In every moment<br />

Ooooo<br />

Ten thousand decibels so mean,<br />

It pins me to all four walls<br />

Opening up my secrets,<br />

I'm exposing myself<br />

So uncool,<br />

I'm storm-torn but it's really exciting<br />

Spread-eagle in the air<br />

This telekinetic hold<br />

Christ, he's the mirror that<br />

Reflects my thoughts<br />

And he's pulling me from the firmament<br />

The sun goes behind the mountain and night eclipses<br />

Oh god, I'm falling to earth....<br />

I thought I was supposed to feel prepared<br />

Can you hear me calling<br />

I'm calling on the esp telephone<br />

Falling<br />

Falling
