Can't sleep at night
The darkness enslaves me
I turn out the light
And no one can save me
So try not to stare 'cause I'm stripped to the bone
It's a trick of the light and I'm lost
Feel like I'm falling
Gravity is dragging me
My head's about to break
Can't break my fall
Insanity inside of me
It's like I'm wide awake
Feel like I'm falling
Can't recognize
I'm hypnotized
These feelings got me plagued
Can't take it all
This gravity is killing me
I can't stand up from falling down
I lie to myself
It don't make it easy, easy
If somebody else
Would only believe me
My sweat soaks the sheets and I'm hung out to dry
It's a trick of the light and I'm lost
Feel like I'm falling
Gravity is dragging me
My head's about to break
Can't break my fall
This gravity is killing me
I can't stand up from falling down
Feel like I'm falling
Wake up
Falling
Don't try to catch me, just let me fall
Eyes wide shut, don't make a sound
Keep falling till I hit the ground
Feel like I'm falling
Gravity is dragging me
My head's about to break
Can't break my fall
Insanity inside of me
It's like I'm wide awake
Feel like I'm falling
Can't recognize
I'm hypnotized
These feelings got me plagued
Can't take it all
This gravity is killing me
I can't stand up from falling
Feel like I'm falling
Gravity is dragging me
My head's about to break
Can't break my fall
Insanity inside me
It's like I'm wide awake
Feel like I'm falling
Can't recognize
I'm hypnotized
These feelings got me plagued
Can't take it all
This gravity is killing me
(Dennis DeYoung)
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Gravity keeps pulling me down
I want to go to Houston, I want to fly to the stars
But I may not have the "Right Stuff" to make the trip to Mars
'Cause it's so hard for me to get my weight off the ground
Yes, it's that Gravity--It keeps pulling me down
I want to climb Mount Everest, and find my Shangri-La
Learn the secrets of the Universe from the Wise Man in Nepal
But it's so hard for me--That mountain's so steep
I know my nose will bleed, 'cause Gravity don't sleep
It don't sleep...
I'm floating...I'm floating...above the crowd
No tensions...no pressures...I touch the clouds
I'm flying...I'm flying...in ecstasy
My problems can't find me...Zero Gravity
Gravity keeps pulling me down
That Gravity keeps pulling me down
I want to be a driver at the Monaco Grand Prix
Have the fastest car in Europe, and meet the Royal Family
But it's so dangerous--It's not the speed that I fear
It's just so difficult to get my motor in gear
I want to be a Millionaire, and own a baseball team
Have a private jet for shopping trips, and a chauffeured limousine
And pay no income tax, and be healthy and sound
I left home when I was seventeen
I just grew tired of falling down
And I'm sure I was told
The allure of the road
Would be all I found
And all the answers that I started with
Turned out questions in the end
So years roll on by
And just like the sky
The road never ends
And the people who love me still ask me
When are you coming back to town
And I answer quite frankly
When they stop building roads
VERSE 1
Baby,
it's been a long time coming,
such a long, long time,
and i can't stop running,
such a long, long time,
can you hear my heart beating?
can you hear that sound?
'cause i can't help thinking,
and i won't stop now
CHORUS
and then i looked up at the sun
and i could see
oh the way that gravity pulls on you and me
and then i looked up at the sky and saw the sun
and the way that gravity pushes on everyone on everyone
VERSE 2
baby when your wheels stop turning
and you feel let down
and it seems like troubles have come all around
i can hear your heart beating
i can hear that sound
but i can't help thinking
and i won't look now
CHORUS
and then i looked up at the sun
and i could see
oh the way that gravity pulls on you and me
and then i looked up at the sky and saw the sun
and the way that gravity pushes on everyone on everyone
We're so lucky
We're still holding on
Just like venus in the morning sun
You and me got gravity
I don't know where all the time went
Light years and so many moons
So many close calls
Now I see a thousand %
You meant what you said and it's good
'Cos everybody falls
A million miles and it fades
We're into orbit now we're safe
So don't you let go
Don't ever let me float away
We're so lucky
Still holding on
Just like venus in the morning sun
You and me got gravity
When it's feeling like a solar eclipse
In the shade it gets so cold
You think it will never go
Exploding like a beat up rocket ship
Spinning so fast round the world
I wish we could make it slow down
A million miles and it fades
We're into orbit now we're safe
So don't you let go
Don't ever let me float away
We're so lucky
Still holding on
Just like venus in the morning sun
You and me got gravity
We're so lucky
Still holding on
Just like venus in the morning sun
You and me got gravity
And we can swim the milky way like star crossed lovers do
I never really thought we'd ever make out this far did you?
Leave the story in the sky like star crossed lovers do
Spend a million lost in space, me and you me and you
We're so lucky
Still holding on
Just like venus in the morning sun
Round and round and round and round
Round and round and round and round
History sits and she tells her stories
Bitter and twisted without power
Sitting watching feeding her jealous mouth
The future looks back to learn her lessons
Memories fade while experience beckons
I'm caught in the middle which way should I go
Gravity's pulling me, but heaven is calling me and
My head's spinning the world's twisted
My head's twisted the world's spinning
My head's spinning the world's twisted
My head's twisted the world's spinning round,
around
This generation is full of religion
Fed up with a diet of nothing
Give me the real thing flowing through my veins
This is the day, this is the hour
Show me the truth cos I want to be blinded
I wanna run, which way should I go
Gravity's pulling me, but heaven is calling me and
My head's spinning the world's twisted
My head's twisted the world's spinning
My head's spinning the world's twisted
My head's twisted the world's spinning round,
around
These are the days that we'll look back upon when we're old
Give me tomorrow cos I cannot wait another day
Gravity's pulling me but heaven is calling me
My head's spinning the world's twisted
My head's twisted the world's spinning
My head's spinning the world's twisted
My head's twisted the world's spinning round, around
It's only getting darker
it may be moving faster
well, it won't stop spinning
but how long will it remain?
This repulsive world
the crimes we all commit
it's not your gravity
it's not your gravity
gravity
the tension keeps building
the changes are rapid
we're through competing
is it better to retreat?
this repulsive world
the crimes we all commit
it's not your gravity
it's not your gravity
gravity
There are wounds that stir up the force of gravity
A cold that will wipe the hope from your eyes
Young girl standing underneath the "L" train
Standing there, watching the trains go by ...
You think that nobody knows where you are, girl
You think that nobody knows how this feels
Alone, in a world of your own
There you are girl
The small things float
To the top of gravity
Gravity
I'm telling you where it is
Gravity
We walk in easy snakes
Through the roulette rattling of the ethyl
And now the arson smell of moon
Polishes a newsstand
They empty the gas can
The watch the fire
If there are three girls running
There are three girls running nowhere
From remedies
That you call random
We call by name
And ask them to explain why
Oh, no I heard somebody
Hush up
Don't say nothing
I thought I heard someone
Well we walk when we want to go
Nobody's gonna be there
Seen somebody, somebody
Be quiet
Nobody's there ...
Nobody
I could not say no to the light of my desire
I'm not asking so much
But you roll-call the passion
His lips ?
No
His back ?
No
His face?
No, no, no
I'm not asking so much!
I try to imagine another planet, another sun
Where I don't look like me
And everything I do matters
Where you are, girl
In your green paint
With a pin to pull
At the fingertips of gravity
Gravity
I'm telling you where it is
Gravity
It's only getting darker
it may be moving faster
well, it won't stop spinning
but how long will it remain?
This repulsive world
the crimes we all commit
it's not your gravity
it's not your gravity
gravity
the tension keeps building
the changes are rapid
we're through competing
is it better to retreat?
this repulsive world
the crimes we all commit
it's not your gravity
it's not your gravity

[Intro (Lecrae):]
It's Gravity
Keeps pullin' me down
[Verse 1 (Lecrae):]
I pen songs for the perishin' and parishioners
Them hearers and them listeners, the home and the visitors
This is not a game, you can't tame or make it purty
They say the earth cursed, so our mouths stay dirty
There's mud on the track, a slug in ya' back
Police done pulled you over wit' a gun in ya' lap
And you ain't the power to make it through this parade
The workers can't keep the profit - everything here is vain
My job oppressive, I strive for my blessin's
The pastor so corrupt it's hard to ride with his message
Riches destroy the owners, the government think they own us
My onus is to keep the police from ridin' all up on us
Leavin' money to kids who spend it on getting' blitz
Say, what's the point of livin' to give it up in the end
Then again, all my sin has been pinned to the cross
I know I'm free forever from this land of the lost
[Hook (J.R.):]
Yeah, every time I think I'm flying
I'm just falling
So close to touching the sky
But gravity keeps pulling me back down
But I can't stay here forever
I want to go, ooh one day!
I want to go
Somewhere where there's no gravity
[Verse 2 (Lecrae):]
Somebody told me there was no such thing as truth
I said, "If that's the case then why should I believe you?"
Murder, money, and mayhem, every place that I lay in
My problems follow suit, I'm tailor-made for this, ain't I?
It's deep. You wanna go deep? I'll take you deep
Reality is really just cheap
Yo' eyes wide open apparently, but you sleep
And everything you have in your hands you'll never keep
So why hold on, I flow on to go on, before long I float on
Eternal life is what I'm thinkin' I'mma bank my hope on
Believe me, easy is irrelevant
The devil want us burning for the hell of it
Elephants in the room say we can't talk about impending doom
Or we gospel rappin' or preaching people out of they shoes
It's cool, I'll be that dude. We glued to our depravity,
Until somebody free us from this gravity. Fly!
There's a little old man, who can get his hands
On a brand new silver planet
Walks the walk, and he talks the talk
If I had the world he could have it
For every question there are ways to shoot it down
Well there's a greenback, a green light
So we suggest we get this new thing off the ground
But I can't stand the gravity, can't stand it
The way you handled it, I got to hand it to you
No I can't stand the gravity, understand it
The way you handled it, I'm coming out of my shoes
Shudder, and wind me up
Like a toy on my first day of school
Stranded, abandoned
It's the rent and I'm out of food
For every answer there are questions to spare
It's nothing but convenience though it's not convenient
We ain't going anywhere
But I can't stand the gravity, can't stand it
The way you handled it, I come and hand it to you
But I can't stand the gravity, understand it
The way you handled it, I'm coming out of my shoes
Come on home
Drifting up alone
Burning away
Up in the space
Lie down in a dream
Tell me whatcha need
Just a circuitry
It's only sanctity
Live how you wanna live
Circle like a satellite
Like a shooting star, still flickering, still glowing
The room is still on fire
For every answer there are ways to shoot it down
Down on the cold ground do you believe that this time you are comin' round
But I can't stand the gravity, can't stand it
The way you handled it, I come and hand it to you
No I can't stand the gravity, can't stand it
The way you handled it, I'm coming out of my shoes
Lie down in a dream
Tell me whatcha need
It's only sanctity
Just a circuitry
Live how you wanna live
Like a Shooting star
Like candle light, still flickering
Floating like a bumble bee, in a whirlwind, blowing
Like a candle light
Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh, I'll never know what makes this man
With all the love that his heart can stand
Dream of ways to throw it all away
Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh, twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like one half could
It's wanting more that's gonna send me to my knees
Oh, twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like one half could
It's wanting more that's gonna send me to my knees
Whoa gravity, stay the hell away from me
Whoa gravity has taken better men than me
How can that be?
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
C'mon keep me where the light is
C'mon keep me where the light is
There's a fracture in the color bar
In the backseat of a parked car
By the liquor store where the streetlight
Keep you company til the next night
In the same town, there's the same scar
In the same glow of the liquor store
By the freeway, where the headlight
Keep her company til the next night
(chorus)
Oh! Gravity!
Why can't we seem to keep it together?
Sons of my enemies,
Why can't we seem to keep it together?
In the back room of the pentagon
There's a thin man with a line drawn
With a red jaw and a red bite
Watch the headline on the next night
(chorus)
Oh! Gravity!
Why can't we seem to keep it together?
Sons of my enemies,
Why can't we seem to keep it together?
Why this tragedy?
Why can't we seem to keep it together?
Oh! Gravity!
Why can't we seem to pull it together?
In the fallout, the fallout
We found out the hype won't get you through
We're connected, connected
I meant it, the hype won't get you through
I feel a weight that's pulling me down,
But my reflex is to try to break out,
Nature gives fight or flight syndrome,
But my feet stay on the ground that's how I've grown,
Bred to resist the gravity of anything that's fucking with me,
Survivalist instincts through my veins are pounding,
Transfused at birth by my urban surroundings.
Gravity won't allow me to fly,
It pulls me down, the pain, I won't cry,
Resistance and drive fueled by hunger,
What doesn't kill me makes me stronger.
I just can't let shit get to me,
Got to reflect back on what pop taught me,
To be your own man no matter what,
To never back down, and follow your gut,
Instinct, something he said that I'd know,
Something that I'd carry wherever I go,
He told me someday I'd have to fight to be free,
And resist the weight of gravity.
Calloused hands wipe away tears,
Of the pain of a man broken by years,
A silent shot that nobody hears,
A smoking gun of our own fears,
My father worked all his life and for what,
Day in, day out, caught in a rut,
The pain of apathy, razor-sharp cutting,
against
the flux
play the field
push the wheel
horizontal
silently
talking
being boxed in
friends
friends of friends
and so on
fruitless triumph
of newton's search
only proves that flesh and muscle
It's only getting darker
it may be moving faster
well, it won't stop spinning
but how long will it remain?
This repulsive world
the crimes we all commit
it's not your gravity
it's not your gravity
gravity
the tension keeps building
the changes are rapid
we're through competing
is it better to retreat?
this repulsive world
the crimes we all commit
it's not your gravity
it's not your gravity
You've dealt me every card I have played,
But I know I'm guilty of choices I've made
This is not the mystery that's constantly consuming me
It's How a God so Holy could love someone like me
No matter where I go Your mercy follows
And I come running back to You
Your Gravity keeps pulling me to You
I must have been destined for You
You knew this human heart would be lost
So You planned a ransom and You paid the cost
There's more beyond my mind that I can't see but I believe,
Because You are the only God who died for me
No matter where I go Your mercy follows
1, 2, 3, 4 - I don't wanna live no more
Well I've got no more reason to live
And I've got no more love to give
Tonight's the night
I'll paint the town red
I'll put another hole through my head
Unjustifiable existence
I feel the weight of a world on my back
I've seen the future
The future looks black
It's what I must do
I have no reservations Ain't talk 'bout self preservation
Unjustifiable existence
Gravity crushing me
Gravity crushing me
I can see God
Yeah I feel something pulling me down
It's forcing me between myself and the ground
Of all the nightmares that ever came true
I think that gravity is you
Unjustifiable existence
Gravity crushing me
Gravity crushing me
I left home when I was seventeen
I just grew tired of falling down
And I'm sure I was told
The allure of the road
Would be all I found
And all the answers that I started with
Turned out questions in the end
So years roll on by
And just like the sky
The road never ends
And the people who love me still ask me
When are you coming back to town
And I answer quite frankly
When they stop building roads
And all God needs is gravity to hold me down
Ooh woe, woe! Ooh woe, woe! Well I've been so many
places before I've been shown so many things through
the eyes of the Lord (2Cor 4:18 & Eph 1:18) And I've
heard so many beliefs in my life (1Tim 6:3-5) But
everything on bended knee shall bow before Christ (Phi
2:10-11).
CHORUS: Gravity Every knee ago bow before the Almighty
(Rom 14:11) I'm talkin' about, talkin' about Gravity
Everything it a fall before the Trinity (Isaiah 45:23)
Well this here one ya named ya tick tock Christ Him a
the stumbling block (1Peter 2:8) Them in shock Check
say them a trip when them a walk (1Pet 2:4-8) Take
stock Stock inna your life and how you walk Stumbling

Check say them a trip when them a walk (1Pet 2:8) Take

CHAT CHORUS: Ooh woe, woe! Me say your system flop
Ooh woe, woe! The Gravity it soon make you drop (1Pet
2:8) Ooh woe, woe! Me say you'll soon fall down,
down, down! (Heb 10:31) Ooh woe, woe! The Gravity it
(will) take you to the ground (Rom 9:33).
Well I've been so many places before And I've seen so
many things done in the name of the Lord (Matt 7:21-23)
But one thing that's so disturbing to me (2Tim 4:4) Is
when I realize, they're in compromise, their lives are
so contrary (Rom 8:7-8).
You can't escape nor defy this law from the Most High
(Heb 2:3) Like a bird you try to fly Reality you
can't deny (2Thes 2:10) Say you must not go astray
It's like a game you try to play No matter what them a
do or say this law will never go away (Rom 10:4) But
you keep putting up a resistance (Rom 8:7) Insisting
with persistence (2Tim 2:19) Me telling you from this
instance You cannot prove its non-existence (Rom 2:15)
Your putting up a resistance (Rom 2:8) Insisting with
persistence Me telling you from this instance You
cannot prove its non-existence! / (Chat Chorus)
(Chorus).

Honey, it's been a long time coming
And I can't stop now
Such a long time running
And I can't stop now
Do you hear my heart beating?
Can you hear that sound?
'Cause I can't help thinking
And I don't look down
And then I looked up at the sun and I could see
Oh the way that gravity turns for you and me
And then I looked up at the sky and saw the sun
And the way that gravity pulls on everyone, on everyone
Baby, it's been a long time waiting
Such a long, long time
And I can't stop smiling
No, I can't stop now
Do you hear my heart beating?
And can you hear that sound?
'Cause I can't help crying
And I won't look down
And then I looked up at the sun and I could see
Oh the way that gravity turns on you and me
And then I looked up at the sun and saw the sky
And the way that gravity pulls on you and I, on you and I
Can you hear my heart beating?
Can you hear that sound?
'Cause I can't help crying
And I wont look down
Gravity, it takes hold of me
It takes me unwillingly away from you
Paradise, it’s more than a roll of dice
Are we willing to pay the price
Can we be true?
For a while are we willing to really smile
‘cause I can’t read this borrowed style
Searching for you
As I go promise me I will know
The moment I see you so I know what to do
I know what to do, When it’s you
I owe to my heart more
As you come into abuse more
It’s perfect It’s all I could ask for
Beautiful As you come into abuse more
For a while are we willing to really smile
‘cause I can’t read this borrowed style
Searching for you
And as I go promise me I will know
The moment I see you so I know what to do
I know what to do, When it’s you
I know what to do When it’s you
I owe to my heart more
As you come into abuse more
It’s perfect It’s all I could ask for
Beautiful As you come into abuse more
I owe to my heart more
As you come into abuse more
It’s perfect It’s all I could ask for
Beautiful As you come into abuse more
Gravity, it takes hold of me
It takes me unwillingly away from you
Paradise, it’s more than a role of dice
Are we willing to pay the prïce
I've had my fun
Had my day in the sun
Now my body's a map
Of a cracked arizona
Time runnin' out
And I'm melting away
Melting away
I'm a human candle
If you see me comin', start runnin'
I'm the one you love
If you see me cryin', start lyin'
I'm the one you love
Failing to plead
With a throat full of dust
Life falls asleep
In a fetal position
My skull is an egg
Like a flash in the pan
A heavenly meal
For the animal angels
If you see me comin', start runnin'
I'm the one you love
If you see me cryin', start lyin'
I'm the one you love
Gravity pulls my face, pulls my skin
Gravity why so soon, what's the rush
Gravity pulls me down, underground
Gravity hunt me down, make the kill
If you see me comin', start runnin'
I'm the one you love
If you see me cryin', start lyin'

Lay me down covered with nothing but your duvet on,
we could be in love if love was a reality.
Take me down to where your heart and where your soul came from,
and we can fall in love cause love is only gravity.
I fell in love with a chick who's a no go,
running around the town like an old bloke.
Where back out cause you know though,
we used to be so solid oh no.
Everybody in the scene risked it,
deep down i dont know how i coulda missed it.
If the balls in your court and she swings by,
then your the one that hits it.
I dont know if we'll make it now,
she dont know so ima break it down.
Every time that im lying down,
shes out there getting bossed around.
She dont know if we'll make it know,
oh look your naked now.
Even though i like your smile,
this is the last time ill take it down.
Lay me down covered with nothing but your duvet on,
we could be in love if love was a reality.
Take me down to where your heart and where your soul came from,
and we can fall in love cause love is only gravity.
Look now im back where i started,
running around the town pissed off.
Angel see you got what you came for,
then like canerow parted.
I aint scared of your boo-tay,
just see you in a new way.
I dont care what you dude say just get out my duvet.
I dont know if we'll make it now,
she dont know so ima break it down.
Every time that im lying down,
shes out there getting bossed around.
She dont know if we'll make it know,
oh look your naked now.
Even though i like your smile,
this is the last time il take it down.
Lay me down covered with nothing but your duvet on,
we could be in love if love was a reality.
Take me down to where your heart and where your soul came from,
and we can fall in love cause love is only gravity.
Its not what you are doing,
its not what you have done.
Its more that im persuing,
but you are only one.
Lay me down covered with nothing but your duvet on,
we could be in love if love was a reality.
Take me down to where your heart and where your soul came from,
Funny how the star looks far away
And it makes me sad to be surrounded
There's no more chest that I can do to change
But in my dreams I see you dying
And the world keeps going round the sun and the moon
And you and I somehow in between
We are poorblesly waiting for the sky to fall down
I put my hands up don't look around
Sometimes we can't forget just where we are
Sometimes it's hard to look around you
It's seen to move but never very far and I don't know why
I can rebelled it
And the world keeps going round the sun and the moon
And you and I somehow in between
We are poorblesly waiting for the sky to fall down
Waking up on the ceiling
Got an uptight downbeat feeling
It's a long way from okay today
Is this a trick, maybe voodoo
I don't stick to the ground like you do
Discriminated, float unweighted
Now get me down
Gravity seems to be malfunctioning
Gravity took a holiday
Suddenly, nothing is making sense to me, again
Gravity pulls the world away
Up is down off balance
I've been singled out by science
In suspense, what's the sense
In choosing me
Tangled up in g-forces
Why did I skip my physics courses
Losing grip, I'm slipping toward the sun
You call this fun
Gravity seems to be malfunctioning
Gravity took a holiday
Suddenly, nothing is making sense to me, again
Gravity pulls the world away, yeah
Everything is synthetic
Light years from copasetic
I lost the laws of effect and cause today
I drift away
Gravity seems to be malfunctioning
Gravity took a holiday
Suddenly, nothing is making sense to me, again
Gravity pulls the world away
Gravity seems to be malfunctioning
Gravity took a holiday
Suddenly, this place makes no sense to me, again
Gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity
Stop pullin' me
I know that you still haven't found you
And when I wanna stand on my own too
Suddenly you start to show signs of what is possible
Then you're back to your ways and I let me down
Tell me why I keep tryna stay around
When all my family, they always tellin' me be through with you
And I know that deep down I'm calling time on you, on you, on you
Every time I'm ready to leave
I seem to be pullin' in the wrong direction, divin' in with no protection
And you can't keep steering me wrong, oh gravity
Pulling me back, pulling me in
Why you pulling me back, pulling me in?
Just like gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity
I know I betrayed what I'm made to
Ignore the universe when I see you
'Cause every night the stars will shine merging into U-turn signs
Anything that they can just to change my mind
When I pass your road, I can't help rewind
What is wrong with me? All that I wanna be is through with you
And I know that deep down I'm calling time on you, on you, on you
Every time I'm ready to leave
I seem to be pullin' in the wrong direction, divin' in with no protection
And you can't keep steering me wrong, oh, gravity
Pulling me back, pulling me in
Why you pulling me back, pulling me in?
Just like gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity
Stop pullin' me gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity
Be quiet, let me leave, let me go, don't say another word
'Cause with every sound you're pullin' me down
Baby, you got a hold on me like gravity
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, gravity
Every time I'm ready to leave
I seem to be pullin' in the wrong direction, divin' in with no protection
Oh, you can't keep steering me wrong, oh, gravity
Pulling me back, pulling me in
Why you pulling me back, pulling me in?
Just like gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity
You are lighter than air
So high you can barely bear the freedom
To do as you choose
No, nothing gets you down
No boundaries no chains around your soul
Making your own truth
But don't you know balloons never really reach the moon
And even birds high in the sky must come down
With the Gravity
That pulls you to your knees
There has to be a final reckoning
Gravity
You know you won't escape
By grace or grave you'll feel the gravity
When you're nearing the end
Of your journey don't pretend
No, the light you see, it might not be the sun
For your heart will melt like wax
When your arms discover that the wings you've made
Cannot take you home
Oh don't you know balloons never really reach the moon
And even birds high in the sky must come down
Let the Gravity
Pull you to your knees
There has to be a final reckoning
Gravity
You know you won't escape
I've got my share of scars on those ol' monkey bars
Every time I'd hit the ground
On that old long dirt my bike lost control
And once again I was fallin' down
Every time I'd try to fly, there's a force I can't deny
Gravity
Grew to be six foot one, depended on no one
Yeah, I was my ol' man
Invincible and strong until you came along
And touched me with your gentle hand
When I look into your eyes, there's a force I can't deny
Gravity
Well, I never really like it much
Always left me all scraped up
Never really saw it as a good thing
Changes tides out on the sea
Pulled your body close to me
First time I ain't been afraid to fall
Don't guess it's so bad after all
Gravity
Well, I never really like it much
Always left me all scraped up
Never really saw it as a good thing
Changes tides out on the sea
Pulled your body close to me
First time I ain't been afraid to fall
Don't guess it's so bad after all
Gravity
Gravity
Somebody save me, coz my mind is a train
And it dont have a destination, and it dont know my name
It keeps runnin, runnin, runnin, runnin,
well, that kinda explains,
why I see every single madness, but I cant see what is plain
Education's a (teacher / preacher), but it don�t teach me how to kiss
I aint no (preacher / teacher), but believe me when I tell u this
What goes up, must come down
You�ll never get it til ya turn it around
What goes up, must come down
No I dont believe in pictures, nothing can hold the world still
And I dont believe in predictions, maybe just gravity
We keep runnin, runnin, runnin, runnin,
well it makes no sense to me,
we struggle with equations, simplicitys the key
Well, it took me years to years, to learn what I knew all the time
Im feelin high, Im feelin low, and theres where to go
Im feelin high, Im feelin low, do you love me?
Down up, down up, Gimme some of the funky chicken,
Groovy! Kiss!
Is that a bruise on your shoulder
Or the name of a friend
Did you cry when you told her
Or did you pretend
Nobody's hero
Ever gets thrown by the wind
Nobody's hero
Ever kicked them in the shins
You should know by now
Gravity loves to win
I spent some time with her sister
The one with the cane
She said it was an accident
With no one to blame
I tried to warn her
Don't turn you back again
I tried hard to show her
She should recognize the grin
You should know by now
Gravity killed her twin
I wrote a line about beauty
She wrapped it in tin
She took my picture of Eden
And soaked it with gin
It's as easy as falling forever down
It's so easy everything grows when you drown
You should know by now
Gravity stole her crown
You can try and fight it but you wouldn't stand a chance
It's out of your control, yeah
You don't have to like it but the weight of circumstance
Is gonna take its toll
It ain't fair and it ain't right
But that really doesn't matter, does it now
That you've seen it fall apart?
'Cause it hurts just the same
So it doesn't really matter who you blame
Maybe it's only gravity
When you're high and flying
Last thing on your mind is ever coming down, yeah
You can keep denying
Up until the time you hit the cold hard ground
It ain't fair and it ain't right
But that really doesn't matter, does it now
That you've seen it fall apart?
'Cause it hurts just the same
So it doesn't really matter who you blame
Maybe it's only gravity
Above the law we thought that we were
Above it all and it's easy looking back to say it couldn't last
I guess we thought that we were something, something else
It ain't fair and it ain't right
But that really doesn't matter, does it now
That you've seen it fall apart?
'Cause it hurts just the same
So it doesn't really matter who you blame
Honey, it's been a long time coming
And I can't stop now
Such a long time running
And I can't stop now
Can you hear my heart beating?
Can you hear that sound?
'Cause I can't help thinking
And I don't look down
And then I looked up at the sun
And I could see
Oh, the way that gravity turns for you and me
And then I looked up at the sky and saw the sun
And the way that gravity pulls on everyone, on everyone
Baby, It's been a long time waiting
Such a long, long time
And I can't stop smiling
No I can't stop now
And do you hear my heart beating?
Ah, can you hear that sound?
'Cause I can't help crying
And I won't look down
And then I looked up at the sun and I could see
Oh the way that gravity turns on you and me
And then I looked up at the sun and saw the sky
And the way that gravity pulls on you and I, on you and I
Can you hear my heart beating?
Can you hear that sound?
'Cause I can't help crying
And I wont look down
And then I looked up at the sun
And I could see
Oh, the way that gravity turns for you and me
And then I looked up at the sky and saw the sun
Something always brings me back to you
It never takes too long
No matter what I say or do
I still feel you here 'til the moment I'm gone
You hold me without touch
You keep me without chains
I never wanted anything so much
Than to drown in your love and not feel your rain
Set me free, leave me be
I don't wanna fall another moment into your gravity
Here I am and I stand so tall
I'm just the way I'm supposed to be
But you're on to me and all over me
You loved me 'cause I'm fragile
When I thought that I was strong
But you touch me for a little while
And all my fragile strength is gone
Set me free, leave me be
I don't wanna fall another moment into your gravity
Here I am and I stand so tall
I'm just the way I'm supposed to be
But you're on to me and all over me
I live here on my knees
As I try to make you see
That you're everything I think I need
Here on the ground
But you're neither friend nor foe
Though I can't seem to let you go
The one thing that I still know
Is that you're keeping me down
You're keeping me down
You're on to me, on to me and all over
Something always brings me back to you
Hey love
Is that the name you're meant to have
For me to call
Look love
They've given up believing
They've turned aside our stories of the gentle fall
But don't you believe them
Don't you drink their poison too
These are the scars that words have carved
On me
Hey love
That's the name we've long held back
From the core of truth
So don't turn away now
I am turning in revolution
These are the scars that silence carved
On me
This the same place
No, not the same place
This is the same place, love
No, not the same place we've been before
Hey, love
I am a constant satellite
Of your blazing sun
My love
I obey your law of gravity
This is the fate you've carved on me
The law of gravity
Here at the station, standing in the rain, lost in my train of thought
Looking around for a better time again, but yesterday ain't running on this track
Unpredictable fortune, my past, lights up my future, at last, ending my torture
Like gravity like love,
You get up after you fall
Like gravity like love
I'm not afraid anymore
Like gravity like love,
You get up after you fall, I ain't afraid no more
Out of no reason I've decided to stay, present a solution, to the problem,
Typical of me, that I concentrate on the destination so much that I miss the journey there and back
Unpredictable fortune, my past, lights up my future, at last, ending my torture
Like gravity like love,
You get up after you fall
Like gravity like love
I'm not afraid anymore
Like gravity like love,
You get up after you fall, I ain't afraid no more
Lost again
Broken and weary
Unable to find my way
Tail in hand
Dizzy and clearly unable to
Just let this go
I am surrendering to the gravity and the unknown
Catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
I choose to live
I fell again
Like a baby unable to stand on my own
Tail in hand
Dizzy and clearly unable to just let this go
High and surrendering to the gravity and the unknown
Catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
I choose to live, I choose to live, I choose to live
Catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
Help me survive the bottom
Calm these hands before they
Snare another pill and
Drive another nail down another
Needy hole please release me
I am surrendering to the gravity and the unknown
Catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
Listen to this
I'm transcending English
Something's bigger
Than the national hymn
If you're thick,too thin
Green,blue or pinkish
Hum together with a cellophane skin
A holy karaoke
Prayer in stereo
Here it comes
Here's to You
To the kings and queens
And all the President's men
It doesn't matter if you're strong
King Kong
Lose the things between yourself and Heaven
And then, when you're ready,
you can hum along
Our holy karaoke
Prayer in stereo
From down to here below
In gratitude
From Coco to Moscow
We hope You're pleased
With these rhyme schemes
And musical score
Like never before
If gravity let us go
We would all go flying
And I'll meet you somewhere in the milky night
Away past the satellites
The breeze is dressed so lightly
And it breathes onto this fire escape
Where all our secrets melt like ice
Leaving only water
Night will close us down and change the view
And I'll promise you what I can
I forget myself when I'm with you
Please remind me, who I am
Dancing like a landslide
Swinging round the living room
We fall like sudden rain from sullen skies
Singing to the radio's tune
Say my name aloud and make it new
And I'll promise you what I can
I forget myself when I'm with you
Please remind me who I am
Day so soon, hear all the traffic move
The sirens all fill this room 'til we both have to shout
From the road, watching the stars explode
You and I breathe so slow, how strange the sound
How strange the sound, how strange the sound
How strange the sound, how strange the sound
How strange the sound, how strange the sound
How strange the sound, how strange the sound
How strange the sound, how strange the sound
Grace, I watched you sleeping
All worn out and dreaming
You slept through the fall
I know you love this time of year
It always made you smile
Grace, I watched you breathing
All quiet and peaceful
But you were so weak
When I left that night I somehow knew
Your patient heart was finally through
But I never cried
I never cried
Everything falls for a reason
Gravity pulls it to earth
Everyone to a season
Everything falls into place
Witness the fall of Grace
Grace, none of us blamed you
Nobody shamed you
When we laid you down
Everyone was there, you know
Your folks, your friends, and me
But I never cried
M--Mitchell; L--DuBois)
what do i know / i sat under a cloud / i looked up / 'fraid to look down
i knew i'd cry if i didn't clear / i knew i'd die if i didn't hear you say
forget that fear of gravity
you take that dream away from me / i'll have trouble getting through the day
get a little savagery in your life
i'll have trouble tying my shoes
forget that fear of gravity
i'll laugh when it rains and dampens my hair
get a little savagery in your life
in my cloud / i walk close never fearing the edge
never waiting at the bend / never two-faced at a crossroads
never wanting the edge of my cloud / tender is the night--C
forget that fear of gravity gravity gravity
forget that fear of gravity
and i'll sit in the window without a cigarette
get a little savagery in your life
SONG
: Words to Words
(M--Mitchell; L--DuBois)
u r an original creation / celebrate / celebrate
moving me down to earth
face to face words to words
it's just so damn easy for me to go
u hold my mind and fate
u r murder u r mercy
black and white
u attract u repel
u r thunder u r silence
C riding me down to earth
face to face words to words
stealing a gaze for all its worth
at the roads we traced / the stars we paced
it was easy with my life on the line
C2 think i'm going to settle down tonight / say u kept me crying alright
think i'm going to settle down tonight / cause u did something
seemed hazy / almost goddesslike
u r an original creation / celebrate / celebrate--C, C2
Can you feel our gravity?
Can you gravitate to me?
Can you feel the gravity?
Right now!
Can you feel me closing in counting down satellites?
Can you see the galaxies brighten when we're aligned?
And every star that navigates,
Will guide me all the way to you
I've been orbiting but you could pull me through
Can you feel our gravity?
Can you gravitate to me?
Can you feel the gravity?
Right now
Can you feel our energy,
As it pulls you into me?
Can you gravitate to me?
Do you lie awake scanning the stars at night?
Are you holding out hope for a sign of life?
Do constellations carry you?
Do galaxies come into view?
Do you wait for me?
Cause I could wait for you!
Can you feel our gravity?
Can you gravitate to me?
Do you feel the gravity?
Right now
Can you feel our energy,
As it pulls you into me?
Can you gravitate to me?
Right now!
Don't!
Don't pass me by
If we let go
Our worlds collide
Our worlds collide
Can you feel our gravity?
Can you gravitate to me?
Can you feel our gravity?
Right now
Can you feel our energy?
Could it pull you into me?
Can you feel our gravity?
The ways of this world are grabbing a hold
Won't let me go, won't let me fly by
It?s taking it's toll down on my soul
?Cause I know what I need in my life
Don't let me lose my sight of You
Don't let me lose my sight
I don't want to fall away from You
Gravity is pulling me on down
I don't want to fall away from You
Gravity is pulling me to the ground
This world keeps making me cry
But I'm going to try, going to try to fly, gotta fly high
Don't want to give into the sin
Want to stay in You ?til the end
Don't want to lose my sight of You
Don't want to lose my sight
I don't want to fall away from You
Gravity is pulling me on down
I don't want to fall away from You
Gravity is pulling me to the ground
I want to fly into the sky
And turn my back on this whole world and leave it all behind
This place is not my home, it's got nothing for me
Only leaves me with emptiness and tears in my eyes
I don't want to fall away from You
Gravity is pulling me on down
I don't want to fall away from You
Gravity is pulling me to the ground
I don't want to fall away from You
Gravity is pulling me on down
I don't want to fall away from You
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
Put me on the cover of Rollin stone
pat me on the back when I come back home
tell me things that I like to hear
I hold back, but you still come near
say you care, and you won't let go
I'm in a world that I just don't know
give me things that I need to fill me
tell me that this gravity won't kill me
And you don't have to cry for me
and you don't have to lie for me
this whole blue sky is falling down on me
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
Full of dreams can't come up short
drivin down south is my last resource
let me shine on MTV
say your proud and happy for me
look in my eyes, guess how I feel
cause now-a-days life's so surreal
give me things that I need to fill me
tell me that this gravity won't kill me
And you don't have to cry for me
and you don't have to lie for me
this whole blue sky is falling down on me
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
Gravity plays favorites i know it cause i saw
Honest to god officer it's awful
Down at work i'm getting too familiar with the floor
Showing off my talentsby the mouthful
Hate to break it to you but its out of my control
Forces go to work while we are sleeping
If i could attack with a more sensible approach
Obviously thats what i'd be doing
Now
Necks are cracking sideways
Hit me from the back side
I am on the white side
You are on the black side
Cut a piece thats bite size
Shoot me from my good side
If you got a straight line
This would be a good time
Gravity works slowly if you notice it at all
Some of us are getting mighty lucky
If you had to live with this you'd rather lie than fall
You thnk i can't fly well you just watch me
Now
Necks are cracking sideways
Hit me from the back side
I am on the thin side
You are on the fat side
Cut a piece thats bite size
Shoot me from my bad side
If you got a straight line
This would be a good time
The sky is always falling down on me
So officer forgive me please!
In the twenty-first century, you can dance
Get your feet off the ground, get the dummy
And if you believe then you can fly
If a man can read, then he can reply
Hit it, gravity
Yeah, wait a minute, look here
Gravity, the big G
G R A V I T Y, gravity
Say it, gotten a hold on me
For the third verse, the sun
I've been trying to get the funky job done
Pull myself up and work that funk
Don't listen to the wrong honky tonk
You got no sense, you dance too fast
You burn all night, you'll never last
If every man can dream he can defy
G R A V I T Y, gravity, wow, big G
G R A V I T Y, gravity
G R A V I T Y, wait a minute
Slow it down, big city
There's a fat cat there sitting pretty
Watch me break out in a cold sweat
Jump back in, you ain't seen nothing yet
You shake it up, you dance too fast
Make it real, make it last
If every man can dream then he can defy
G R A V I T Y, gravity, the big G
Gravity, G R A V I T Y, say it
Gravity, gotten a hold on me
Let me say that if you can dream
Then you can fly
G R A V I T Y
If you can love, then you can defy
G R A V I T Y, G R A V I T Y
Good god
Gravity, the big G
G R A V I T Y, gravity, the big G
Gravity, the big G, G R A V I T Y, say it
Gravity, good god
Got a hold on me
Gravity
G R A V I T Y, gravity
Big G, G R A V I T Y
Gravity, gravity, G R A V I T Y, say it
I saw a wreck at a light
Two cars that gave up the fight
Nobody left to be saved
No steam left under the gauge
And in that carnival light
The show began to unwind
And I saw just how it goes
Out on that old two-lane road
I been saving time for another life
Maybe happiness is coming
But you don't know when
When
The gravity of whether you were meant for me
Came crashing down with sovereignty
In someone else's tragedy
I saw the old man again
He only talks about when
There was so much to believe
Before the cancer to be
He can't remember the song
The words they all come out wrong
And all his records are cracked
He knows you can't get it back
It's only faded time
Maybe happiness is coming
But you don't know when
When
The gravity of whether you were meant for me
Came crashing like a symphony
In someone else's used to be
And we carried our cross like a clover
And we smoked cigarettes and we lied
About the things we would feel when we're older
Oh God, what a fine waste of time?
Never had, I imagined,
Such a beautiful situation,
Where everything I ever wanted is here,
Is right here
She is the rock I lean on,
So good it scares me,
She's my condition,
My solution,
My way back every time
When the daylight wakes me in some place
I don't wanna be,
She's my gravity,
When I'm out of position
and nothing is working for me,
She's my gravity
She brings me home,
She's my gravity
All at once,
I'm in stitches,
She makes me laugh so hard I'm crying
I've never felt so animated before,
Oh no,
And when I'm losing myself,
Feel her arms around me
My affirmation, my direction,
My way back every time
When the daylight wakes me in some place
I don't wanna be,
She's my gravity,
When I'm out of position
and nothing is working for me,
She's my gravity
She brings me home
My calling,
My way out,
So all things I'm about,
My best side by design,
So always in my mind
My condition, my solution,
My way back every time
When the daylight wakes me in some place
I don't wanna be,
She's my gravity,
When I'm out of position
and nothing is working for me,
She's my gravity
When the daylight wakes me in some place
I don't wanna be,
She's my gravity,
When I'm out of position
and nothing is working for me,
She's my gravity
She brings me home
She brings me home
Gravity don't work on me
The ground don't pull me down
I can jump any thing I come to
I do not need to come down
Driving back from your house
It's first gear all the way home
Got my window wide, wide open
I can feel the snow
Could get so stuck on you
But I think I won't
Could sink into this
I would rather just float
So I won't stick to you like glue
I will drift by you just like smoke
I'll leave you nothing but some dirty laundry
Nothing but a little catch in your throat
See the pretty rainbows in the oil slicks on the highway
Hear the lovely music of the sirens passing by
I could love every single person in this truck stop
I would not even have to try
I won't stick to you like glue
I will drift by you just like smoke
I'll leave you nothing but some dirty laundry
Nothing but a little catch
And I throw it all away
Live on ice and wine
Made of skin and appetite
I do not want to call you mine
Don't want to call you mine
I do not want to call you mine
So maybe last month's paycheck is just a jingle in my pocket
Maybe last night's love is all a pack of lies
Maybe last year's questions really still don't have no answers
But I still look down when I want to see the sky
So I won't stick to you like glue
I will drift by you just like smoke
I'll leave you nothing but some dirty laundry
Nothing but a little catch in your throat
Gravity don't work on me
Gravity don't work on me
Your gravity, it won't work on me
soon an angel's leaving
they're ruled by laws of gravity
soon this door is closing
and you'll never know unless you go
no, you'll never know if you won't go
wishing well of wonders
glitter box of dreams
inside lie bitter pills
you know i never wanted
to sing for your lover
but the angels sang of love
and outside the night was falling
fly - fiery angels kiss the sky
won't you shine your light down on me
fly - through the blazing cosmic eye
no, you'll never know if you won't go
eleven ways to lose your mind
seven ways to shine
four doors that may take you in
one that's closed behind
i should have seen you leaving
but i never thought you'd go
no, i never thought you'd walk away
it's getting dark, too dark to see
and angel's a long time gone
too many things i can't combine
with logic reason
how can i tell the black from white
if all is black and blue?
god knows where i'm going
Gravity keeps pulling me down
(repeat 7X)
I want to go to Houston, I want to fly to the stars
But I may not have the "Right Stuff" to make the trip
to Mars
'Cause it's so hard for me to get my weight off the
ground
Yes, it's that Gravity – It keeps pulling me down
I want to climb Mount Everest, and find my Shangri-La
Learn the secrets of the Universe from the Wise Man in
Nepal
But it's so hard for me – That mountain's so steep
I know my nose will bleed, 'cause Gravity don't sleep
It don't sleep…
I'm floating… I'm floating… above the crowd
No tensions… no pressures… I touch the clouds
I'm flying… I'm flying… in ecstasy
My problems can't find me… Zero Gravity
Gravity keeps pulling me down
That Gravity keeps pulling me down
I want to be a driver at the Monaco Grand Prix
Have the fastest car in Europe, and meet the Royal
Family
But it's so dangerous – It's not the speed that I fear
It's just so difficult to get my motor in gear
I want to be a Millionaire, and own a baseball team
Have a private jet for shopping trips, and a
chauffeured limousine
And pay no income tax, and be healthy and sound
Now I've seen too many wannabe players
Turn around and get played cause they be underestimating females now a days.
So I'm staying on my toes
I never get to comfortable but
When I run into you I just seem to lose control, ohh
Didn't mean I get so caught up
Now I'm calling you constantly
I can feel the attraction attracting me to ya
And I'm so caught up no no don't you ever leave
Just stay with me, just stay with me
[Chorus:]
Finally gravity pulled us closer
I feel like somebody just knocked me over
And I'm falling I'm falling so in love
With you, with you, with you
Now I thought it only worked on suckers
Can nobody fit the game on me?
But I'm chasing after ya see you found a symphony
Cause I feel so deep in love
Tryin' be where you are
And I just lose control, ohh
Didn't mean to I get so caught up
Now I'm calling you constantly
I can feel the attraction attracting me to ya
And I'm so caught up no no don't you ever leave
Just stay with me, just stay with me
[Chorus x3]
Finally gravity pulled us closer
I feel like somebody knocked me over
And I'm falling I'm falling so in love
With you, with you
Finally gravity pulled us closer
I feel like somebody just knocked me over
And I'm falling I'm falling so in love
With you, with you, yeah, yeah
Finally gravity pulled us closer
I feel like somebody just knocked me over
And I'm falling I'm falling so in love
you lost the language right out of your mouth. an instinct to scream, but no sound would come out. a swan with a note caught in her throat. burnt out the wick. bit down to the quick. you were caught in the drag and carried a long ways, and couldn't get out. you keep having this dream, but can't recall how it goes. there's movement in shadows speaking with voices you know you know. how did it go? how does it go? it should be light out, but you can't see a thing. and you can't shake the feeling you're fa

Make a wish, ya, make a wish,
Lady, I'm certain that I dreamed you, over nights suspenses
Leaving me defenseless on this late night
Lost in my emotion, searching for devotion
Someone I could love without loud
And love em is the empty space of my heart
I could live with no doubt
I feel invincible when we create this all, baby
I'm just a shooting star, the way you pull me and move me
A far don't seem so far, yeah now, it's gravity
Two hearts hung amongst the heaven
You and I were destined, to collide
I'm open wide and these eyes, fixed upon a vision
You are all I'm missing
Someone I could love without loud yeah
And love em is the empty space of my heart
I could live with no doubt
I feel invincible when we create this all, baby
I'm just a shooting star, the way you pull me and move me
A far don't seem so far, yeah now, it's gravity
Caution collision oh, caught up compellin for
Long as it's you I want to
Take a deep breath it's time to let go and close my eyes
What am I waiting for, here I go
I'm just a shooting star, the way you pull me and move me
A far don't seem so far, yeah now, it's gravity
I'm just a shooting star, the way you pull me and move me
I will not be here forever
So I will not waste any time
Just pick my head up from off the bar dear
Buy the next round I'll be fine
Spoken like a poet
Who's just too drunk to know that
Chorus
Everybody falls in small degrees
Everybody falls in small degrees
It's gravity
It's gravity
Here within lies the king of graceland
Which makes the point all too clear
We stand in long lines praying our peace
And we go home with a souvenir
And only fools rush in
To save a desperate man
Chorus
Pull me down, don't pull me down
Pull me down, don't pull me down
When I was little I used to dream that
I had a cape and I could fly
I rescued my friends from burning buildings
And no one would ever die
But costumes fade fast
And super powers pass
So Let's start at the beginning of this story
I was just a boy nowhere to call home
There I was building houses on the sand
I could see that I was only running circles in my mind
It just goes on and on and on until it finally catches up to me
Like gravity it takes me around and turns me upside down
That's when it all came screaming back
Just like gravity, what draws you to me
Someone I didn't know I needed
It's like gravity, and it's stronger than me
I need you here
There you were in your perfection looking on
You see that I could only run in circles for so long
You just press on and on and on until you finally catch a grip on me
Like gravity you take me around and turn me upside down
That's when it all came screaming back
Just like gravity, what draws you to me
Someone I didn't know I needed
It's like gravity, and it's stronger than me
I need you here
When will you be able to see past your own hands?
I'm taking down, empty pictures that we used to hold close, before you...
That's when it all came screaming back
That's when it all came screaming back
Just like gravity, what draws you to me
Someone I didn't know I needed
It's like gravity, and it's stronger than me
I need you here
I’ve been lost in the water like a rolling rock
My heart always felt incomplete
Like someone out there’s waiting for me
I always said that I would
(It’s a song for my baby, It’s a song. It’s a song for my baby)
Wait a while, wait until perfection comes
Wait a while, wait until perfection comes, And it comes
Gravity yeah it let’s me fly
It keeps our love up in the clouds (Up in the clouds)
Gravity it feels good to fall
Into your life and solid ground
Ten minus touchdown, Ten minus touchdown
Oh my God it feels exactly just as good as I thought
You dried the streets where there once was rain
Now I know that love can never come too late
I always said that I would
(It’s a song for my baby, It’s a song. It’s a song for my baby)
Wait a while, wait until perfection comes
Wait a,while, wait until perfection comes, And it comes
Gravity yeah it let’s me fly
It keeps our love up in the clouds (Up in the clouds)
Gravity it feels good to fall
Into your life and solid ground
Ten minus touchdown, Ten minus touchdown
Yeah you complete my life, Yeah you complete my life
Yeah you complete my life, Yeah you complete my life
Gravity yeah it let’s me fly
It keeps our love up in the clouds (Up in the clouds)
Gravity it feels good to fall
Into your life and solid ground
Ten minus touchdown, Ten minus touchdown
Gravity yeah it let’s me fly
It keeps our love up in the clouds (Up in the clouds)
Gravity it feels good to fall
Into your life and solid ground
My sweet tooth cavity shoots
Pain up in my brain bringin' on the rain
Look at the sad sack frown
So I'm puttin' on my gravity boots
cruisin' around town cruisin' around town
lookin' for a place to get down
And I'll get off my high horse
If you can be my ladder
Make sure the ground below is covered with roses
And I'll take my head out of the clouds
If you can take yours out of your ass
And we can celebrate with a night on the town
But you gotta be down
Gotta be down, gotta be down, gotta be down
gotta be down, down, down, gotta be down with me
Gotta be down, gotta be down, gotta be down
gotta be down, down, down, gotta be down with me
I read all the words off a cereal box
My curiosity is my new philosophy
But Trix are for kids
So I went to school a university
But daydream was just about all I did
And I'll get off my high horse
If you get me a ladder
Make sure the ground below is covered with roses
And I'll take my head out of the clouds
If you can take yours out of your ass
And we can celebrate with a night on the town
But you gotta be down
Gotta be down, gotta be down, gotta be down
Gotta be down, down, down, gotta be down with me
Gotta be down, gotta be down, gotta be down
Gotta be down, down, down, gotta be down with me
And I walked the souls right off these shoes
tryin' to beat these nowhere blues
And I'm choosin' everything I lose
And I'm casting shadows over you
Can't always be perfect sunny days
But you had to learn the hard way
You wanna be down with me?
I'll give you some of my gravity
Everytime that you told me ,
that we would write our own story ,
there was something in your voice that ,
made me believe ,
every way that you steal my heart ,
for every thing that you are ,
there's something in your love that ,
tells me i need you ,
but you can't get started ,
when you're heavy hearted .
we're both fighting gravity ,
and it's making it hard to breathe ,

I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
Put me on the cover of Rollin stone
pat me on the back when I come back home
tell me things that I like to hear
I hold back, but you still come near
say you care, and you won't let go
I'm in a world that I just don't know
give me things that I need to fill me
tell me that this gravity won't kill me
And you don't have to cry for me
and you don't have to lie for me
this whole blue sky is falling down on me
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
Full of dreams can't come up short
drivin down south is my last resource
let me shine on MTV
say your proud and happy for me
look in my eyes, guess how I feel
cause now-a-days life's so surreal
give me things that I need to fill me
tell me that this gravity won't kill me
And you don't have to cry for me
and you don't have to lie for me
this whole blue sky is falling down on me
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
Gravity
When I walk I touch the sky
I feel ten feet tall
And I know why
It's everywhere
It's in your eyes
The secret that we can defy
Gravity
ooh/ La dada dada da
Gravity
ooh/ La dada dada da
You helped me grow
Now you gotta let me go
Cuz I have learned to fly on my own
And it's gonna be
Pulling on my heart and soul
But I can't go back now that I know
Gravity
ooh/ La dada dada da
Gravity
ooh/ La dada dada da
Falling upwards
Catch me if you can
One step forwards
Here we go again
Gravity
ooh/ La dada dada da/ can't bring me down
Gravity
ooh/ La dada dada da/ can't bring me down
Gravity
ooh/ La dada dada da/ can't bring me down
Gravity
ooh/ La dada dada da/ can't bring me down
This world tries to bring me down.
This world likes to throw me around.
This world tries to bring me down.
With its G-R-A-V-I-T-Y.
Fell down the stairs this morning when i was half asleep.
Picked myseld back up but Im still seeing stars.
Gotta keep on pushin forward to the sky.
You gotta fight gravity until the day you die.
This world tries to bring me down.
This world makes me feel like a clown.
This world tries to bring me down.
With its G-R-A-V-I-T-Y.
Tired of climbing up that mountain.
My feet like lead.
Thers a hole in my pocket sucking out all by bread.
Force=distance/distance squared.
If that apple would have been an anvil, no one would have
He's over there still in the corner
Where he sits and wonders why he never bothers
with these little things that -- to matter
like being alone for a while
this time it feels alright
hey you over there
is gravity getting you down
hey you on the other side
is gravity getting you down
that's why we're here
we understand (we understand)
that's why we're here
that's why we're standing
that's why we're here
because we understand, understand
hey you over there
is gravity getting you down
hey you on the other side
is gravity getting you down
cause this time it feels alright
that's why we're here
that's why we're standing
that's why we're here
because we understand, understand, understand
Gravity can’t hold me
Gravity can’t hold me no more
Gravity can’t hold me
Gravity can’t hold me no more
Gravity can’t hold me
And if you wanted to show me
Don’t talk gotta know me
And tell me where you’re coming from
You always wanted to do this
Not all of us pursue this
Maybe dayjobs pollute us
You paid you’re dues so let’s do this
And when you finally let go
Fast lane or drive slow
Let’s get it right from the get go
But I’m still waiting by the phone
And since I’ve come this far
Guess I could walk just a little bit more
Since you’ve come this far
Guess you walk
Guess you walk
Just a little bit more
Just a little bit more
Just a little bit more
Just a little bit more
Dreams carry us through
Help us do what we got to
I really wanted to thank you
For sharing the road with me
Cuz we’re all moving
Gotta figure out what’ we’re doing
Aint nothing that needs proving
‘cept proving to your own
and when you finally get there
you might find there aint no ‘there’ to get to
but that’s alright
we’re gonna see this thing through
see this thing through
and since you’ve come this far
guess you could walk just a little bit more
since I’ve come this far
guess I could walk
guess I could walk
just a little bit more
just a little bit more
just a little bit more
just a little bit more
gravity can’t hold me
gravity can’t hold me no more
gravity can’t hold me
I found another one
Who's infected by greed
Such a lazy one
I think I know what we need
It's a loaded gun
We'll put it right between the teeth
Of a lucky one
We'll put him down on his kness
And tell me why you're so pathetic
Tell me why I shouldn't let it burn
Oh it's a shame to see such a tragedy
Well you're dead to me you're dead to me
So long to gravity, It can't hold me down
You can't hold me now.
You've got the perfect blend
But if you mix it all in
With the filth of men
What comes out in the end is a mockery
A self-righteous disease
Get the gasoline
I think it's just what we need
And tell me why you're so pathetic
Tell me why I shouldn't let it burn
Oh it's a shame to see such a tragedy
Well you're dead to me you're dead to me
So long to gravity, It can't hold me down
You can't hold me now.
I have watched a race of human decay
Waiting for me to break
Did you think that I'd walk away?
How could I believe a disgrace like you?
A waste like you, a waste of so much hate.
Can't you see you're in way to deep with the guilty?
Such a tragedy, Well get on your knees get on your knees
Hard to breathe when you're on your knees, get on your knees
Cause you're dead to me.
Oh it's a shame to see such a tragedy
Well you're dead to me you're dead to me
So long to gravity it can't hold me down
You can't hold me now
Surrounded by surrenders
So detail this policy
We got tendency
To chase something fake
Can't stop this legacy
Repeating every mistake into another mistake
Piece by piece, choose by choose
Keep your ass down to truth
Nothing gone escaped this, and you too!
No time for looking forward
No time for looking back
We get now
We get all
Of this fuckin' land
That's called "evolution"
Please read "self-destruction"!
We get now
We get all
We got sickness
We got fault!
-Gravity is killing me! -
Bury the past, don't give a shit
We got concrete
For the future's sake
Can't stop this legacy
Repeating every mistake into another remake
Piece by piece, step by step
Lots of secrets, laid to rest
Nothing gone escaped this... no!... tomorrow nothing will never escape!
This is stronger anymore, as an animal... !
This is stronger anymore, as an animal
This is stronger anymore, I'm an animal
Criminal 'n' paranoid
Parasite
Only searching paradise
To multiply
Thru the motherfuckin' time
Metropolitan pain
Toxic rain
Nothing can be sane
The sufferance
People die
Oh my god!
It's our shit that falls from the sky...
Never enough!
It's the only law
We still are slaves
It's the only force
That keeps us here
So close your eyes now, and believe
We get now
We get all
We got sickness
We got fault!
I see right through you
With your "how've you been"s and "it's nice to see you again"s
Pretending everything is okay
You stole my heart and now I got it back
How could you leave me like that
Wouldn't that be nice
If I just let you back in my life
[Chorus]
You got it all worked out just a little too late, you took the long way down when you pushed me away, you're gonna say we all need a little gravity, give me just a little gravity, we all need a little gravity, give me just a little gravity
One of these days you're gonna lose your game
Gonna run out of blame
When the jokes you've made turn on you
Well you sold me out
And you question my word
And now you falling to earth and just in time
Don't forget to enjoy the ride
[Chorus / Situation critical]
Take it in and let go
Game over this time
Destination goodbye
Your pedestal was too high
And baby this well has run dry
Your well has run dry
I was hurt
I was down
I was struggling
And I tried to warn you
To let me recover
On your own
You detailed how to save me
I said get away from me
But you would defend me
Look what it's done to you
We all saw this coming
Coming right after you
You just failed to see the gravity
I tried to protect you
But look what it's done to you
We all saw this coming
But we both failed to see the gravity
I will stay in your arms for the aftermath
And I try to want you
To let you be close to me
But the hurt that you saw was so shattering
I see you as threatening
But you would defend me
Look what it's done to you
We all saw this coming
Coming right after you
You just failed to see the gravity
I tried to protect you
But look what it's done to you
We all saw this coming
But we both failed to see the gravity
Look what it's done to you
We all saw this coming
Coming right after you
You just failed to see the gravity
I tried to protect you
But look what it's done to you
We all saw this coming
Black clouds are circling around me
But I can't allow them to surround me
Til I can't retreat
And this isn't war, it's devastation
And there is no end to the frustration
Til you admit defeat
And I'm putting my heart on display
Let it move you or simply walk away
I judge a man by his convictions
If he lives his life without restrictions
Like he's really free
And I used to think I had a calling
But then I learned we're only falling
'Cause of gravity
And I'm putting my heart on display
Caught in the shadows
My head is spinning
Everything's moving around and around
And the people were betting
And the loser that's winning
Is the one who has dibs on my face in the ground
And I know, "Hey, Suck it up girl"
And I know, "It's perspective you lack"
But my list is red starfish and blue lizards' tails
And I mark one thing off and five more come right back
Well I like the concept of tight vacuum packed
Let's shove fifty pounds of shit into a fifty pound bag
So that keeps me chasing my tail all around
And most of the time it's just me being wagged
And I know I'm at the brow of my being
And I know it's hard to look down
And I'm probably as free as I ever will be
Still I choose to live like I'm gagging and bound
Well I wonder what it's like to walk around weightless
To jump for your heart and never come down
To know the potential of true human will
Without all of this gravity just dragging us down
And I know, one day we will wake up
And I know, and start to live as ourselves
And not let the cowards of history claim us
This ain't nothing like the fairy tales that you've read
That prince charming stuff is all in your head
What I can promise is between danger and harmless
I'm telling you girl,
It's out of this world
One kiss will make you
Wake up, wake up, wake up from your slumber
It will blow you away
Turn your nights into days
Let me take you, take you, down under
[Chorus:]
This love, baby it will have you floating
No drugs, just me as your addiction
Gravity, our love's defying
Gravity, our love's defying
Gravity, our love's defying
Gravity, gravity, oh
No no, gravity, we don't need no gravity
No no, gravity, we don't need no gravity
How about we play a little game that I know
Hold out your hand, and tell me not to let go
I had a vision, vision
I saw you missing, oh
I'm telling you girl
It's out of this world
One kiss will make you
Wake up, wake up, wake up, from your slumber
It will blow you away
Turn your nights into days
Let me take you, take you, down under
[Chorus:]
This love, baby it will have you floating
No drugs, just me as your addiction
Gravity, our love's defying
Gravity, our love's defying
Gravity, our love's defying
Gravity, gravity, oh
No no, gravity, we don't need no gravity
No no, gravity, we don't need no gravity
Take a look in the sky
Baby, we're so high
Just you and I, no gravity
Take a look in the sky
Baby, we're so high
Just you and I, no gravity
[Chorus:]
This love, baby it will have you floating
No drugs, just me as your addiction
Gravity, our love's defying
Gravity, our love's defying
Gravity, our love's defying
Gravity, gravity, oh
No no, gravity, we don't need no gravity
Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh, I've never known what makes this man
With all the love that his heart can stand
Dream of ways to throw it all away
Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to break me down
Oh, twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like a one half could
It's wanting more it's gonna set me to my knees
Oh, twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like a one half could
It's wanting more, gonna set me to my knees
Gravity, stay the hell away from me
And gravity has taken better man than me
Now how can that be
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
Keep me where where the light is
Just keep us where the light is
Oh, just keep us, keep us
Keep us, keep us
Oh, where the light is
Oh, where the light is
Oh, where the light is
Oh, where the light is
Oh, where the light is
Oh, where the light is
Oh, where the light is
Oh, where the light is
I've had my fun
Had my day in the sun
Now my body's a map
Of a cracked Arizona
Time Runnin' out
And I'm melting away
Melting away
I'm a human candle
If you see me comin', start runnin'
I'm the one you love
If you see me cryin', start lyin'
I'm the one you love
Failing to plead
With a throat full of dust
Life falls asleep
In a fetal position
My skull is an egg
Like a flash in the pan
A heavenly meal
For the animal angels
If you see me comin', start runnin'
I'm the one you love
If you see me cryin', start lyin'
I'm the one you love
Gravity pulls my face, pulls my skin
Gravity why so soon, what's the rush
Gravity pulls me down, underground
Gravity hunt me down, make the kill
If you see me comin', start runnin'
I'm the one you love
If you see me cryin', start lyin'
I'm the one you love
I hit the ground
While reaching out
Watch you rise away
I hear your voice
I see your face
When I look at me
We talk in rhyme
But lack the will
Comfort in silence kills
I'm not the enemy
So don't you let me die
I'm caught in the gravity
Don't let me die
We make the sound
We use the words ever perfectly
And yet somehow
We never seem to know what to say
We talk in rhyme
But lack the will
Comfort in silence kills
I'm not the enemy
So don't you let me die
I'm caught in the gravity
And you're the sky
I'm not the enemy
So don't you let me die
I'm caught in the gravity
Money is time, time is a currency
You and I both now who you're spending yours on
You were the one
You cried for infinity
But you can't have it all
No, you can't have it all
Do I choose to be weighed down by gravity
With these thoughts that I own
Oh, I don't like this feeling of jealousy
It's not what I want
I love a girl who loves synchronicity
Stimulated by nothing more than the meeting of minds
She's all around
She's like electricity
But I can't have her all
No I can't have her all
Do I choose to be weighed down by gravity
With these thoughts that I own
Oh, I don't like this feeling of jealousy
It's not what I want
She refused to be weighed down by gravity
Now she's so holding on
She confided that love it is an energy
She's passed it on,
I'm on the other side of things, you know
I'm on the other side of things
and I can't be laughing when you look at me
cause your operating out of jealousy,
well I'm not gonna hear anything you say,
I'll listen but I won't let it in my way
...up above, I'm looking at the heavy ground,
I can feel it, but it wont let it drag me down
Over time you can kill me, But I'll resurrect so...NANANANANANA
You're never gonna thrill me,
but you can kiss my ass so NANANANANA
Woahh You're bringing me down.
Pick it up! Pick it up! Pick it up! Pick it up!
Woahh you're bringing me down
Pick it up! pick it up! pick it up!
Gravity is a parallel on words
and overtime it will slowly start to hurt ya
Even though it don't feel like anything
it ain't something you can fix with a diamond ring.
I'm not gonna hear anything you say
I'll listen but I wont let it in my way
up above I'm looking at the heavy grounds
I can feel it but it wont let it drag me down.
Don't prostitute yourself,
You're selling yourself out,
You're unavoidable
Simply irresistible
And certainly you're kissable
But next to you I'm way to shy
And lose my backbone
Leave my feelings unknown
Play should've could've on my own
Then I'm left to wonder why
This is so hard
Letting down my guard
It's all the same, it's I blame
But maybe that's not right
So I'll blame
Gravity
For always holding out on me
When I just want to run away
It trips me and I fall for you
Makes perfect sense to me
Lose responsibility
Ten every time I fail to see
How easy this could be
I can put the blame on gravity
You're undeniable
Truly unbelievable
And certainly achievable
If only I could speak my mind
But I deliberate
Simple things, I complicate
Then I think it best to wait
It happens to me all the time
This is all so hard
Letting down my guard
It's all the same, it's you to blame
But maybe that's not right
So I'll blame
Gravity
For always holding out on me
When I just want to run away
It trips me and I fall for you
Makes perfect sense to me
Lose responsibility
Then ever time I fail to see
How easy this could be
I can put the blame on gravity
There is something I must confess
I was happy with loneliness, oh yeah
Weightlessness is so easy to be
Now I'm up in a different spin
Out of control and completely into you
So why put the blame on me
You have seen my ends
And You know my beginnings
Like a fashion my heart has come and gone
I would never stray
But I am prone to wander
Though grace has kept me coming back for me
You are just like gravity
You come in close and pull me back to You
I would never run away
No matter where I go You stay with me
Yeah, You're just like gravity
I have raised this wall
And built up my defenses
But You always know how to break me down
And despite how hard I fall
You look past my secrets
And search me till I finally am found
You are just like gravity
You come in close and pull me back to You
I would never run away
No matter where I go You stay with me
Here come my final ticks of time
Feel need to sweat but not to cry
Reflect upon my recent years
I have no regrets and I have no fears
I've always been a pretender
So how will I be remembered?
As I watch my life pass me by
I hold on to strands of time
No need for my insecurity
the universe is one with me
Soon we'll find a way
Past this blackened day
If what I hear is true
Then take me with you too
Now my eyes grow old and weak
Getting ready for eternal sleep
Here it is just seconds away
Who would have thought I'd die today
I have no fears
I have no lies
Ready to kiss my life goodbye
I've never been a pretender
I see an emptiness dancing around in your eyes
Your emotions are tangled, you've landed hard too many times
Forces are pulling you in
But not to the places you've already been
Don't be afraid to walk into faith
And let go of the reasons and all of the feelings
That keep you from floating out into the air
At the end of the fall, I'll be there
I know that it's hard to believe you can trust anymore
When you're covered in scars from the times that you've trusted before
As soon as the moment is right
Step to the edge and then jump for your life
Don't be afraid to walk into faith
And let go of the reasons and all of the feelings
That keep you from floating out into the air
At the end of the fall, I'll be there
Let yourself fall into me, just believe in gravity
Don't be afraid to walk into faith
Let go of the reasons and all of the feelings
That keep you from floating out into the air
Don't be afraid to walk into faith
And let go of the reasons and all of the feelings
That keep you from floating out into the air
At the end of the fall, I'll be there
No fun in hanging around here all day
Seems like I'm pissing all over my leg
Walkin the plank, Watching the sharks as they swim waiting for dinner
Your gravity's defeating me
Sadness and beauty are one in the same
Now I'm drawing the line in the sand, over and over
Don't you feel the same way
I need to reciprocate
All those things that I have learned, have learned
Storms in my head, they are brewing today
Too much resistance will soon break the gauge
Suck into space, notice the lack O2
Something's not right here
Your gravity's, Your gravity's defeating me
Sadness and beauty are one in the same
Now I'm chasing salvation again, over and over
Don't you feel the same way
I need to reciprocate
All those things that I have learned, have learned
Don't you feel the same way
I need to reciprocate
All those things that I have learned, have learned
Don't you feel the same way
I need to regurgitate
All those things that I have learned, have learned
Who can restore me
Back to what I should be?
Who understands me?
And all that I'm feeling?
And when I'm falling
Who's gonna catch me?
Makes me want to sing out
Your love will never let me down
Ruler of the stars
You lift my heart to where you are
This is why I sing out
Your love will never let me down
When you rescued me
You broke the laws of Gravity
You have restored me
You conquered and saved me
You're my security
When worlds are colliding
I'll fly away with you
Unshackled and set free
I Let go of the world to touch Your face
I will not be here forever
So I will not waste any time
Just pick my head up from off the bar dear
Buy the next round I'll be fine
Spoken like a poet
Whos just too drunk to know that
Chorus
Everybody falls in small degrees
Everybody falls in small degrees
Its gravity
Its gravity
Here within lies the king of graceland
Which makes the point all too clear
We stand in long lines praying our peace
And we go home with a souvenir
And only fools rush in
To save a desperate man
Chorus
Pull me down, don't pull me down
Pull me down, don't pull me down
When I was little I used to dream that
I had a cape and I could fly
I rescued my friends from burning buildings
And no one would ever die
But costumes fade fast
And super powers pass
I've heard scientists,
Get confused when you ask them to define it,
Cause it's a miracle,
It keeps the universe we see from ever dying,
And the stars from falling,
Though we can't see it
It must true
And it's the only thing I've found, to compare our love to
It's invisible
You can't touch it
No matter where you go on earth u can't outrun it
It only exists to pull you in
Till your where your meant to be
Girl our love is a lot like gravity
It's a phenominal
How I can hunger for ur touch and need ur company
And it's just beautiful,
How from across a crowded a room ur eyes will folow me till our bodies meet
And when I'm not with u I feel a tug inside my heart
That's just never satisfied til I'm where you are
It's invisible you can't touch it
No matter where you go on earth u can't outrun it
It only exissts to pull you in till ur where ur meant to be
Yea girl our loves a lot like gravity
Yeahhh
(Guitar solo)
It's invisible
U cnt touch it
No metter where u go on earth u can't outrun it
It only exist to pull u in till ur where u r meant to be
Yea girl our lvos a lot like gravity

Since you've gone
I don't feel
So bon vivant
All alone
In a world
Where I don't belong
Oh, I can't break free of this feeling.
Gravity, gravity
Pulling me down to the ground
I can't believe I was there in your arms
But now I'm alone.
I wake up
Make a cup
And go back to bed
I can't move
Coz my body
Feels like lead
Every thought of you is so heavy.
Gravity, gravity
Pulling me down to the ground
I can't believe I was there in your arms
But now I'm alone
With this gravity, a tragedy
Even the time weighs on my mind
Every moment is pain, I cry out your name
It's so hard to move.
Can't concentrate with this weight
On my head, in my bed
I can't sleep, no relief
Shades of grey, night and day
Lock the door, shut the shade
Life's a bore, nothing more
Since you've gone, since you've gone, since you've gone.
If you call
I will act
So nonchalant
No I won't (no I won't)
Let on (let on)
That you're all I want (all I want).
Oh gravity, oh gravity
Pulling me down to the ground
I can't believe I was there in your arms
But now I'm alone
With this gravity, a tragedy
Even the time weighs on my mind
Every moment is pain
It's so hard to move.
With this gravity, oh gravity
Pulling me down to the ground
I can't believe I was there in your arms
But now I'm alone
With this gravity, a tragedy
Even the time weighs on my mind
Every moment is pain
It's so hard to move.
With this gravity (gravity)
I'm so lost in love,
with no rhythm or rhyme.
I'm starsruck,
I'm so stuck with no sence of time
I fall apart
When you're gone I think
that I need your love
Just pull me
right back to start
I dont know what this could be
so lost in your mystery
caught up in your GRAVITY
Don't know how you got
such a hold on me
caught up in your GAVITY
You know I never want
you to set me free
caught up in your GRAVITY
(gravity)
caught up in your GRAVITY
caught up in your GRAVITY
caught up in your GRAVITY
(gravity)
It's just you
You're all I need
to keep my heart tied
when you're here
I wouldn't fly away
oh no I won't even try
we fall apart
when you're gone I think
that I need your love
Just pull me
righ back to start
I don't know what this yould be
so lost in your mystery
caught up in your GRAVITY
don't know how you got
such a hold on me
caught up in your GRAVITY
you know I never want
you to set me free
caught up in your GRAVITY
(gravity)
caught up in your GRAVITY
caught up in your GRAVITY
caught up in your GRAVITY
(gravity)
There's no way to stop
this attraction
cause baby you're my satisfaction
if you dissappeared
It's like the world would fall
I would lose control
so never let me go
never let me go
oooOoooO
not even the flight
Through the galaxy
could ever keep me away
caught up in your GRAVITY
(From you)
Don't know how you got
such a hold on me
don't know how you got
such a hold on me
caught up in your GRAVITY
You know I never want
you to set me free
caught up in your GRAVITY
caught up in your GRAVITY
(never set me free)
caught up in your GRAVITY
caught up in your GRAVITY
You riddle, you say
You throw yourself
On to me
It's kind of hard to lay it down
Just one two three
And I know
Just why you take it slow
You've got those things
Living down, down below Of the heart
You make it harder
Every time it comes around
We tell each other
It's not fair the way you take me there
And then you go and waive it off
Pretend you just don't care
But if you love me
With all of your heart
There's no need to worry
Why do you have to make it so hard?
And if you can't stay
Baby it's allright I
I'll be your blowtorch
Burning your way throughout
The night
You riddle, you say
You throw yourself
On to me
It's kind of hard to lay it down
Just one two three
And I know
Just why you take it slow
You've got those things
Living down, down below
With every tremor
Of the heart
You make it harder
Every time it comes around
We tell each other
It's not fair the way you take me there
And then you go and waive it off
Pretend you just don't care
But if you love me
With all of your heart
There's no need to worry
Why do you have to make it so hard?
And if you can't stay
Baby it's allright I
I'll be your blowtorch
Burning your way throughout
The night
Bridge
But if you love me
With all of your heart, yeah
There's no need to worry
Why do you have to make it so hard?
And if you can't stay
Baby it's allright I
I'll be your blowtorch
Guiding your way throughout
The night
But if you love me
With all of your heart
I'll make you proud of me
I'll guide your way throughout the
dark
And if you can't stay
Baby it's allright I
I'll be your blowtorch
Guiding your way throughout
The night
i climb to the roof to see
if i could sit it
the atmosphere laughed at me
i lied and said i could win
a mission unfolded me
???? virgin to sea
condition remoted me
lies seep from my grasp
i couldn't float from mouth to mouth
i hate the language
gravity moves some people out
there's too much damage
i fell from the roof at speeds
i've never acheived
the ground had it's eye on me
just feet from ???
i couldn't float from mouth to mouth
i hate the language
gravity moves some people out
Siah:
Yeah...Yeshua the Po ED, Siah
Gravity...
Wind blows in the intro, frontin like I did it
But them elemental forces blessed me with possession
Fraction of my physical action is a tenth
Nine consist of soul but I'm (down by fault)
The span of my arms does not constitute my reach
That's the sideways A, of the Y's a few feet
Vertical is 5'4, giving you the two dimensional
Third is the depth that's incomprehensible
Fourth is the time that binds space
Situated in the mind with the rhyme race
Like speed I feed the rhythm ill thoughts
Without a hook and it still gets caught
I scale walls like fish
Bringin the mix from across the river Styx
For decipherin like the matrix
In the annals of rap, I want the dog-eared page
Nothin less than that, plus a whole lot more
And it's hard livin by the mental intersection
Where writer's block is sorta like gridlock, yeah
Bit my connection with the Earth is by night
So 'til my body's terminated I'm a always rhyme tight
It's like that
[Chorus:]
Gravity, achin like a cavity
Takin its toll, but not controllin my soul
Gravity, aches like a cavity
Takes its toll, but not controllin my soul
[Yeshua:]
Listen and remember, MCs who render empty compositions tender
Stop rappin like Christians at the end of December
Called up science to make a deal
Permittin my defiance at gravity in hip hop
Let's form an alliance, keep me rappin (amidly?)
And you'll be proud guaranteed if you'll only let my shit drop
Pete Morgan demanded me to never harden
Spittin the (intellegular?) but be the regular I beg your pardon
I got a call, on the other line
I reckon your time is precious, so I'll only be a second
With that, I hit that button, it was wife
But she's a bitch, so I switch back, nothing but an interruption
Let's get back to our discussion, is it on?
He said "Bet" and then voices exit
Since then I rip a, rhyme without hesi-tation
As if I, had wings or better
Doing backflips on tightropes it's phat shit that I wrote
And on practice I hang on the factors that I float
Let go, and get so high like my icon be
Ready to check for I.D. to flow beyond me
My jaw, oozin raw rhymes being direct cause
Of Newton's law losing meaning
If there was a chance of history havin me grapple the apple
We wouldn't overstand gravity
[Chorus]
[Siah:]
Trapped on this planet, I didn't plan it
Stuck to the granite my shells find light
But the light's infinite, looks right into it
I into it, links like sausages
Kinks in my brain, keeping me sane
On a jet plane, or on ethereal planes
Reach the ladder by a former, rhyme rope ladder
Climbin and creatin, rung by line
But an unseen force, plots my course
Down I'm forced, to the ground I slip
and the rhyme rope rips, fingertips are cut
Hands get burnt and I retreat to the hut
You see blisters, turn a boy into a mister
But gravity aches like a cavity
Takes its toll, but not controllin my soul
I hold a hole in my soul to keep it warm in the cold
And in the cold, my winter breath forms words
Literally you see me speak in three dimensional verbs
Intentional swerves, not conventional blurbs
I got forty foes, and roll with forty thieves
Takin beats and breaks and when the Lord Jesus son
And even it come we take flight in the night
With the iron fist, with the iron fist
Defying science...

I've had my fun
Had my day in the sun
Now my body's a map
Of a cracked Arizona
Time runnin out
And I'm melting away
Melting Away
I'm a human candle
If you see me comin, start runnin
I'm the one you love
If you see me cryin, srart lyin,
I'm the one you love
Failing to plead
With a throst full of dust
Life falls asleep
In a fetal position
My skull is an egg
Like a flash in the pan
A heavenly meal
For the animal angels
If you see me comin, start running
I'm the one you love
If you see me cryin, start lyin
I'm the one you love
Gravitypulls my face, pulls my skin
Gravity why so soon, whats the rush
Gravity pulls me down, underground
Gravity hunt me down, make the kill
If you see me comin, start running
I'm the one you love
If you see me cryin, start lyin
I don't wanna call you
Because I used to call you everyday and night
I don't want to love you
Because I wouldn't be able to do anything on my own
Gravity starts to pull me down a little
I caught my breath and headed towards the middle
She doesn't seek dependency
She doesn't want to fall the day she leaves me
The more I devote myself to you
The more my own identity will be gone
I don't want to miss you
That's why I refuse to care about you any more
I wish I could just kill you
That way we can be together forever
Gravity starts to pull me down a little
I caught my breath and headed towards the middle
She doesn't seek dependency
She doesn't want to fall the day she leaves me
The more I devote myself to you
The more my own identity will be gone
Stare into your eyes and I see
Direct reflection of myself
All being said
I lie in bed
I'll do this all on my own
I don't wanna call you
Because I used to call you everyday and night
I don't wanna call you
The stars came out tonight
And your eyes locked on to mine
Our hands intertwine
We layed in the grass on a blanket
We let the cool air carry us away
When I'm with you
It's like Im floating on thin air,
So easy to breathe,
To believe in,
The things you do that sweep me off my feet
That semi-drifting into space
It's like there's no more gravity
And now I'm mesmerized
High above the city lights
The rocket sparks ignite
And our hearts take flight
And I just need you to know
When I'm with you
It's like Im floating on thin air,
So easy to breathe,
To believe in
The things you do that sweep me off my feet
That semi-drifting into space
It's like there's no more gravity
And I asked one thing: Will you always hold on to me?
Oh we're floating x3
& I asked one thing: Will you always hold on to me? Hold on to me
When I'm with you
It's like Im floating on thin air
So easy to breathe
To believe in
The things you do that sweep me off my feet
That semi-drifting into space
