Stop Me, I’m Falling
[Verse 1]
Walk along the street
You feel so good
You got your mind on
You got your suit on
Everybody looks at you
They think he must be someone
[Chorus]
You were no one
Try to stop yourself from falling
From where you’ve got to
[Verse 2]
Funny how familiar
Everybody seems to find you
They don’t mind you
Little ladies laugh, they smile
With every move you make
They love you
They think they know you
[Chorus]
You were no one
Try to stop yourself from falling
From where you’ve got to
[Bridge]
One day, you’ll step down
Let somebody else wear your crown
Then I’ll make you see
See what I’m trying to be
[Outro]
(You look into the humanity idea)
(Miles outside and above your head)
(Looking into it for a reflection of your own face)
(You sit in your room filled with yourself)
(Taunted by the laughter of quicksilver thoughts)
(Sometimes behind and sometimes in front of you)
(Surrounded by bookend buildings full of tottering people)
(And you rise and wander restlessly)
(Through something that wasn’t quite the same)
(As when you were born, but the same word is used)
(And in the distance, I can see an old, old friend)
