Falling Down
LIL PEEP Lyrics

The lyrics of Lil Peep's "Falling Down" depict a relationship that is struggling to survive long-distance. The song begins with the suggestion to watch the rain as it's falling down, giving a sense of peacefulness and contemplation, however, as the lyrics unfold, the tone of the song becomes more melancholic. The sun on the lover's skin is no comfort for the separation they feel when they're apart. The rain becomes a metaphor for tears and heartbreak that keeps falling as the relationship deteriorates. The line "Darling, your love is like walking on a bed of nails" suggests that the relationship is painful and difficult, and the singer seems to have tried hard to keep it together, but now it's time to let go.

As the song progresses, it shifts to a tribute to Lil Peep, the rapper, who passed away in 2017. Several lines are spoken by one of his friends, expressing regret that he didn't know Peep better and how he wishes he could have checked him out sooner. The song concludes with the line "your love is like walking on a bed of nails, and I just can't keep on fightin'", signifying the end of the relationship or maybe a sign of the end for Lil Peep himself.

The lyrics of "Falling Down" have been interpreted in different ways, with some people seeing the song as a suicide note from Lil Peep himself. However, the general consensus is that the song speaks to the pain and emotional struggles that people experience in their relationships when there is a lack of communication and distance.
