The Study on Falling - Asaf Avidan

In the morning when the smoke is cleared…

Will be waking up alone

And the story of how we ended here

Is the same old one we know

When everything is not enough

And all you know is playing rough

And we get going when it’s too tough

This study of falling

But still I’m holding you

But still I’m holding you

But still I’m holding you

You let go, and I’ll let go too

And we’re rolling through the aftermath

Of all the words that slid beneath the door

Yeah we’re falling to our usual path

Of all mistakes that we have lived before

When everything is not enough

And all you know is playing rough

And we get going when it’s too tough

This study of falling

But still I’m holding you

But still I’m holding you

But still I’m holding you

You let go, and I’ll let go too

And I’ll let go too

And we’re rolling through the afterglow

Of an implosion that had made no sound

And we’re falling back to what we know

To land with both our knees upon the ground

When everything is not enough

And all you know is playing rough

And we get going when it’s too tough

This study of falling

But still I’m holding you

But still I’m holding you

But still I’m holding you

You let go

You let go

And I’ll let go too
