Somehow I fell

(now) each memory passing slowly more out of reach

A place, a smell

Anvil-chested waking up from a falling dream

I knew relief

But It’s been years since I’ve said words I’m scared to speak

I don’t want to be alone

A quiet hell

My body tense each breath afraid to be released

Time didn’t tell

Or so it seems things are where they will be

And I have always been falling

I don’t want to be alone

(And) I have always been falling
